It's important to note that this program is not meant to be a bible, and you are free to adjust it to your schedule and your fitness level. The program is designed to be completed in 8 weeks, with 3 runs per week. You will notice that on some days, you will have an optional rest or cross-training (strength training). I highly recommend one or two cross-training sessions a week for injury prevention and build muscles to support your running economy. Also, each week builds on the previous week, gradually increasing your mileage and intensity.
​
Before you begin, take a moment to consider your current fitness level. If you're starting from scratch, it's important to listen to your body and don't be afraid to take extra rest days if you need them.
