This program is designed for anyone who is interested in improving and/or sustaining their running ability. It is designed for people interested in running a 5k, all the way to people interested in competing in marathons. The program is broken down into 4 phases:
Every 3 weeks, a specific aspect of the workouts intensifies (more volume, less recovery time, etc).
Week 1 we will get initial numbers and percentages, the remaining 11 weeks work off those numbers and push runners to run much further and faster than they thought possible!Improve Overall Work Capacity
