Train for London's Run!
½ Marathon:
This schedule assumes you have the ability to run 3 miles, three to four times a week. If that seems difficult, consider running the 10-K distance this year. Don’t worry about how fast you run your regular workouts. Run at a comfortable pace. You should be able to hold a conversation while running. Feel free to walk during your workouts anytime you feel tired or need to shift gears. It is o.k. to walk – the goal is to finish the race any way you can.
10K and 2 Mile Fun Run:
Let’s get moving! You do not have to be a runner to do this! You will set your own pace/speed. Don’t worry about how fast you go. Run at a pace that allows you to converse comfortably while you do so. DON’T PUSH TOO HARD TOO FAST! It is o.k. to walk the entire time. Nobody cares if you walk the full 10-K, they’re more concerned that you finish.
Distance Runs: This workout is based on distance. Don’t worry about running precisely those distances, but you should come close. Pick a course through your neighborhood or in a scenic area where you think you might enjoy running, then measure either by car or bicycle.
Cross training means doing another sport. This can be biking, jumping on the trampoline, playing soccer or basketball – or whatever you like to do! It is considered an easy day – just move and breathe!
Stretch and strength means stretching with some strength training. You should stretch every day before and after you run, but on Thursdays, stretch a little more. You can do yoga too. Strength training could include push-ups, pull-ups, sit-ups – the kind of stuff you do in P.E. or the use of free weights or machines. Lifting light weights with high repetitions is a good rule of thumb for runners.
Tempo run: After warming up for 10 minutes, run at a pace that is “comfortably hard”-a pace you can keep up for the whole time specified It’s o.k to push yourself to not walk at all for the whole tempo time. Then run easy for 10 minutes.
Sprints: After you have warmed up for 15 minutes, run as fast as you can for 10 seconds. Repeat. Then run easy for 10 minutes.
Rest is important – don’t skip it! Give your muscles time to recover so you can run again. Your muscles will actually strengthen as you rest! Without recovery days you will not improve.
