There are no minimum mileage requirements for the Custom Training Plan. This program is designed to meet you exactly where you are—whether you’re starting from the couch, returning to running after time off, building toward your first race, or training at an established weekly mileage. Every plan is built from your current fitness, goals, and experience, and can include anything from a return-to-run progression all the way up to structured training for a half-marathon, 25K, or ultra-distance event. If you can move, you can start here.

Hi, I’m Lindsey Altermatt, founder of MN Trail Run Collective. I’ve been a runner for over 26 years, with experience ranging from road marathons to the rugged ultramarathon, and everything in between. While I have a deep love for Minnesota’s trail systems, I value every mile, whether it's on pavement or dirt. I help runners build a bridge between their current fitness and their wildest goals. Whether you are chasing a road PR or transitioning to the trails, I’m here to help you focus on the miles that matter most to you. Let’s get to work.
