Are you dreaming of a completing a 10k or half marathon?
Are you unsure of where to start in your training?
Do you work best with a guided workout plan?
I’ve got you covered! Running and racing are two of my favorite things (apart from my family and pasta of course). I would love to help you reach your 10k and half marathon race goals!
My passion for running started in high school and progressed through college and into my adult life. During my first two marathons, I had no idea what I was doing when it came to training and ended up in the medical tent at the end of both of them.
After learning more about proper running training for women, the importance of strength training, the vital inclusion of core work, and the speed boost that interval runs gave me, I have been able to complete two more marathons in a personal best (and countless 5ks, 10ks, and half marathons) feeling strong.
The 10k/Half Marathon Training Plan is 10 weeks, which I highly recommend for your training unless you are a regular racer, currently in excellent distance running shape, or are historically injury free.
The 10-Week 10k and Half Marathon Training Plan includes:
- Separate run plans depending if you are training for a 10k or half marathon
- Three days a week of running (two interval days, one long run day)
- Two days a week of strength workouts
- Picture sheets of all strength workouts
This training plan is perfect for those at the beginning-intermediate level of running and who can comfortably run 3-4 miles at a time 3 days a week.

The strength and core workouts in this 10k and half marathon training plan are ideal for runners as many training plans just focus on the running mileage and not the full body.
Doing some strength and core training will help prevent injuries, make you a more efficient runner, and keep your core stronger for longer (the core is typically the first thing to lose form during a distance race).
