Your goal is within your reach with this easy-to-follow training schedule.
“I believe you can transform any body into a running body,” says running coach Greg McMillan, who designed this program to be progressive. “Also, people get bored just building distance every week,” he says. “So I’ve incorporated fun workouts and variety.”
The program includes four weekly runs (but can be modified for three to five runs). The stride and stamina workouts help you build speed, and the long run helps you build distance. McMillan also mixes up steady pace runs with runs where you try to finish your last few miles faster. For more tips and detailed training information, go to mcmillanrunning.com.
