So, you want to be a runner?

Do you have a goal to run a distance race this year? As a runner, I can appreciate the time and training that go into a running goal. I have found several training plans, whether your goal is a 5K (3.1 miles), 10K (6.2 miles), half marathon (13.1 miles), or marathon (26.2 miles), that will help make your goal attainable. I have used, or have clients that have used, most of these plans. They DO work!

Remember to listen to your body. If something hurts, take a day or two off and rest. It is better to sacrifice a day or two of training than to risk injury. Good luck!
