    Done! Four months ago I couldn't run 50 meters. I'm 60 and hadn't run since my teens. Did GTN's 5km plan first, then this one and ran my first ever 10km this morning. I used to hate running - getting into it now. Thanks for the great plan. No races but Strava is a great help.

      Very impressive! Any advice for getting started? I know some people in the exact same situation, older age haven’t ran since their teens but now they’re getting back into physical exercise. Running is something they’re convinced they can’t do and that their heart might stop even though they’re in good shape. Did you jump strait into the 5k program?

    I started running 10ks multiple times a week because I took a few wrong turns when I was out running with my dog. the plan was to only run a 5k but I started liking the longer distances and now I've found some 10k routes.I ran cross country throughout middle school and high school. after high school I still ran regularly. I took a few years off of running and did CrossFit until I couldn't afford it anymore. it wasn't hard to get back into running shape.

    Instead of 3-4 rest days might be better to add 1 or 2 recovery runs in as a substitute. Just help others blood flowing and maintain that base level for your engine.
    Training for my half marathon I had two rest days per week, two recovery runs, two speed workouts, and the long run on Sunday’s. Really helped me build that base and I was shocked at the outcome.

Should I keep the structure of 3 runs/ week, one of them being interval run? How should I structure my training routine?

      @Fleaf13 4 роки тому +4

      Most training schedules won't have a race distance run in them, but will have a long run that is slightly shorter than the race distance. I think its because if you tried running race distance in your training it would take a long time to recover so you might not be able to get the rest of the sessions completed before race day and wont be ready. If you want to add in a race distance run into your training its best to incease the number of weeks you train so you have time to recover and carry on training before your race 👍

According to the plan I would have to run 2 times a week a 30min easy run, that would around be 4.5Km twice a week. I usually run two 1.6km recovery run, one 3km run and a 5km long run on Sunday. I feel that I would drastically increase my weekly mileage. Should I stick to the plan or increase my mileage a bit ore before starting?

    Can someone explain interval training? I've been doing cardio work for 10 years but never got into running outside. I can run 5k in 25 minutes, and for some stupid reason because of Gym closures I started running 5K every other day on max and injured my knee (bad shoes). So now I'm resting and recovering I'm looking into learning how to run smart with a program, however the couch to 5k might be to slow for my liking. So I'm looking to get into running a 10k, but I really don't understand what a an easy run, medium run, hard run, and interval is. An easy 30 minute run might be a 3k for me, would running a 3k on Sunday still work? I also want to note that I have run many 10k's on a a treadmill in an hour but never outside of the gym.

    I dont get it. I cant run more than about 3.5 miles. a little over 5k. I think I am running too fast. I just ran earlier 2.3 miles each mile was 7.8 mph consecutive. there was no way I could have ran any longer. I ran in my neighborhood which is really hilly but when I'm on flat ground I cant really run more than 3.5 miles when I do the river run for 3.5 miles it takes me 23:50 to run that usually. I really want to start running distance but I cant seem to do it

      Hi Chris try backing off on your intensity and distance for a bit or sub a walk day for a run day for some weeks. When you start out your body needs to build areas up to keep everything in the right place. Otherwise things crop up like Runners Knee where the patella starts moving around causing pain. :)

    When doing the intervals, do you rest at all, or just straight from 6 mins easy to 8 mins continuous and so on? Seems fairly obvious that you just go from one straight to the next, but I can hope can't I?

    I don't understand why in week one you say Sunday is a longer target distance run, but it's only 3km. I'd expect 3km to take less time than 30 mins, which is the time for running on Monday and Thursday. Am I missing something?

    I'm pretty fat so I need some honest opinion on this.
    Last november, I started running. I could run like 200m max at a time. By march, I could do 7.5k. Then shit weather and injury sidelined me so now starting again since september, I've again built back upto 8k runs. I did my first 10k in 58 minutes. If I run to say fit and not for competition, how fast do I need to make 10 k time for it to be valid?

    Iv just started being able to run 5k lately and this is just the kind of video I need!! But just have one question, as I said I can run 5k now and it takes me exactly 30 mins to do so, I do but pretty wrecked by the end, but when you guys say do an easy run for 30 mins should I just do the 5k as I do now? Or slow it down and do say 3k in the 30 mins?? Cheers

    • @chucky8894
      @chucky8894 4 роки тому

      I would say just run with a comfortable pace and hit the 30min goal. Don’t look at the km’s. You should not be completely wasted after 30min so keeping that in mind adjust your speed accordingly.

      Mlungisi Cingo of course. Just be wary of the impact. I do a lot of my running on a mix of terrain to minimise injury. Treadmills aren’t quite as hard as tarmac, but just keep an eye on it
