“I come from a track running background, so the 5 km excites me. My personal best stands at 14:06, so I know what it takes to go fast!
This training programme has been designed to improve both your aerobic and anaerobic energy systems. You can’t just rely on your endurance to do well in a 5km, you need to work on your top end speed!
Follow this programme to the best of your ability and you should be able to achieve your own personal 5km goal.”
GOOD LUCK!
