I began running later in life, so I follow a run/walk/run method to help preserve my body and to allow me to run farther and believe it or not, that method of running can also help you run faster!
so you have a framework to work from and to know how to safely prepare for running your first 5K.
Download this beginner’s 5K training plan, tape it to your fridge and follow the guidance for a successful race day.
When doing so it helps you to maintain a good pace, allows you to finish your distance on the plan, and makes you feel good about accomplishing something challenging such as running!
As a beginner, it’s about completing the race and having a good time while doing so.
