🍏 it’s an excellent plan & the Fartleks really benefit our overall running fitness. You are really benefiting and doing well.

Hello! I used the NRC 10K plan as well and really enjoyed it.

I started out just choosing three of the workouts/week but after a week or so did similarly to you, completing all runs in a 10-day week.

I noticed it improved my overall running, too and hit a few PB's on my 5K races whilst training.

Have you got a 10K in mind or on the calendar?
