10km Handbook Level 5: 52:00-60:00mins
This is a 8 week programme designed to help you smash your 10km goals. On this level 5 plan you will have 3 runs & 2 strength sessions per week. The plan has been designed for athletes looking to run between 52:00-60:00mins in their target 10km race.
“I ran the Athens Olympic trials for 10,000m at the age of 41. I also won the Masters 10km World Championships the same year. This is a distance I know very well.
You need the speed of a 5km runner and the stamina of a half marathon runner to do well. It is mostly aerobic, but unless you do some speed-work you will struggle to maintain your pace throughout the whole run.
I created this training programme with a perfect mix of speed and endurance. If you follow it consistently, you’ll smash all of your 10 KM targets.”
GOOD LUCK!
