Thursday Training Plan: 8 Weeks to a FASTER 10k
This programme is one of my staples and works great for pure runners and triathletes racing both sprint and olympic distance.

To follow this programme effectively I highly recommend some sort of GPS watch like a Garmin and I’ve also included power based workouts if you’ve paired your Garmin with a running power meter like a Stryd.
