Workouts in the Training Schedule. Tempo run: Tempo runs help you develop your anaerobic threshold, 2  which is critical for fast 5K racing. Start your run with 5 to 10 minutes easy running, then continue with 15 to 20 minutes running near your 10K pace (but not at race pace), and finish with 5.Instead, you can run a faster 5K by following this free training plan for the next 6 weeks, written by Olympic coach Mario Fraioli. With a mix of medium-long runs, speed workouts and progression runs, you’ll be able to improve your strength, speed and stamina—and very likely—run a faster 5K.

Interval Training: To improve speed, you sometimes need to train at a pace faster than your race pace for the 5K, about the pace you would run in a 1500 meter or mile race. Run 400 meters hard, then recover by jogging and/or walking 400 meters.5k Training Plans: Couch-to-5k down to 16 minute training plans. Welcome to the 5k training plan section. 5000 meters, 3.1 miles, or perhaps 16404 feet whichever way you want to define the distance, the 5k race distance is an ideal running challenge for beginners and pro’s alike.

The Intermediate 5K Run Program is a step up in mileage and intensity from the Beginner 5K Run Program and geared towards runners who have completed a 5K and want to improve their time. It incorporates four run days, longer endurance runs, speed workouts, cross-training and strength training and higher mileage.WARM-UP: 12–15 min. very easy jogging followed by 4 x 30 sec. pickups, building speed to a moderate/fast effort, with 1 min. rest in between. Then run 2 min. at a moderate effort with 2 min. rest just before the mile.

THE TEST: Reset your watch to record only this portion. Run 1 mile as fast and as steady as you can.The Workout: Warm up 10-15 minutes.

Run 1-2-3-4-5-4-3-2-1 minute repetitions at a 5K race pace (or close to it). Your recovery interval is half the repetition time (so do an active recovery interval of 30 seconds after a 1 minute repetition, etc). Cool down 10-15 minutes.

If you’re training for a marathon, running 15 miles at your goal marathon pace is very specific to the demands of the race. Just like three 1-mile repetitions at your goal 5K pace is specific to the 5K race distance. You can take this principle and apply it to any race. Running 2 x 5K at your goal 10K pace is very specific to a 10K race.Nike Run Club Guided Run: 5 Minute Run or RECOVERY RUN: 5:00 Nike Run Club Guided Run: First Speed Run or SPEED RUN: Intervals / 8 x 1:00 5K Pace / 1:00 recovery between all intervals Nike Run Club Guided Run: 7 Minute Run or RECOVERY RUN 7:00 Nike Run Club Guided Run: Next Speed Run or SPEED RUN: Intervals / 5:00 Warm Up / 1:00 5K Pace / 2:00 10K Pace / 1:00 5K Pace / 2 x 0:45 Mile Pace / 2.

The 5k intermediate plan includes five days of running that includes a tempo run and a long-distance run. The intermediate half marathon training plans are separated to include one for endurance and another option to include one day of speed work to get that PR.Interval training where you alternate fast running with jogging or walking is a very effective form of speedwork. The training schedule includes interval training featuring 400-meter reps (repeats) every other week, alternating with the tempo runs discussed above.
