Couch to 10k Training Plan

This program is designed for individuals with limited to no previous running experience, who are looking to build the endurance and confidence needed to complete their first 10K. It's also an excellent fit for runners who have struggled to build mileage without dealing with injuries. Primarily structured as a walk-run program, the goal is to gradually build up to running the entire distance at an easy, comfortable pace. The program includes cross-training days to improve overall fitness and reduce the risk of injury, making it a well-rounded approach for new runners. Before purchasing, it’s recommended that runners ensure they have access to cross-training equipment such as a bike, elliptical, or pool. If these options aren’t available, runners can substitute cross-training with a brisk walk of the same duration to maintain the balance of the training plan.
