It’s super important to incorporate at least 10 minutes of mobility/injury prevention exercises every day.
Your joints and muscles can get stiff with either repetitive movements and/ or the stress of a workout.Depending on your training base, a five-week program should be just enough time to have you running for the full 3.1 miles. Your first step should be a complete medical exam to make sure it is safe for you to begin a running program. Begin with a walk/run program four times per week for 20.“Couch to 5K” is a free program that takes people from their couch to running a 5K race in 9 weeks.
5K is short for 5 kilometers, or 5,000 meters or 3.1 miles. This running program was invented by Josh Clark of CoolRunning WAY back in the day.The following 5K novice training program lasts eight weeks and climaxes at the end of Week 8 with a 5K (3.1 mile) race.
It is among the easiest programs I offer both online and in books. If you are a beginning runner, just about to take your first running step, this is the program for you. “Do you need to race to call yourself a runner?”.Find a training plan geared toward your level of running fitness. A typical program length for a 5K is around 8 weeks, so count back from race day to see when you need to start training. You can find all kinds of training plans online, but one of the best for total newbs is a free mobile app called Couch to 5K (C25K), which you can get for.
Record your running times, workouts, and diet. Nutrition plays a part in 5K preparation. While training, include plenty of lean proteins, healthy fats, and complex carbohydrates.

Very good advice Harry.You are a great Athlete.I know you are flying all around the place at the moment.I hope you are giving yourself enough recovery time.Especially on a very morally good diet..Great following You on social media.Keep it up.
You did it girl! Way to go. Very proud of you. I love doing 5K’s. I haven’t done many in last couple years. Huge accomplishment to you!
A girl that cute better be able to run fast-she’s running in a bad neighborhood over the First Street Bridge in L.A! She looks great.
LOL that’s crazy, who looks that good while/after running?!?
Congratulations Lynn! Disney races are so much fun, well when the weather cooperates and minus getting up at 2:30 AM. Running through the parks is worth the early wake up, Good Job. Kevin & Karen
do you have strava? if so whats your username? if you wouldnt mind
You are AMAZING!!!! There’s no way I would even let the idea of a 5K settle in my brain long enough to consider it. But you DID IT in the RAIN & COLD! Awesome photos of you too.
Big HUGE Congratulations ����
Been watching some of your videos! Great info! Starting to take my cardio training more seriously same as I approach my strength training. Going to implement aerobic training sessions and other useful tips you shared:). I may not wish to do a full marathon but I do enjoy running and want to be able to cover more distance at ease plus increase my 5k speed:D
Thank you for the videos. vegan hugs
Would you recommend still doing interval training if you are just running for fitness, and just trying to increase the distance able to run, not planning on competing?
I’m finally old enough to run a 10K. I’ve got five weeks until my first race so this video was really helpful!
Ran my first 10k training run the week after my first 5k training run. Felt comfortable at the time but I’m sure it led to me being injured for the rest of the summer and autumn last year. Not recommended.
Thank you so much for this video, it’s exactly the type of information that I was looking for. I have been running 5k for a while, I am registered to a 7,1km in November and then I aim for a 10k trainning. Well done with your videos and I will follow your advise! Thanks!
This is how I’ve been doing it I’m training for the flying pig marathon in Cincinnati next year in may so I’m working on myself now I started getting discouraged and angry with myself but it looks like I’m starting off ok so I’m just going to keep going thanks!
SO excited for this series! thanks for letting me be apart of the run journey! 😉
Thank you for posting your videos! Your videos are so comprehensive and educational. I also love that you promote a plant based diet! I have so much to learn about running. Thanks for helping me in this journey.
Thanks for this video! Planning on doing a 10k in August only do 5ks at the moment and I was thinking about how i was going to train. Then this video popped up! subscribed
Congrats Lynn! Did you do this before or after you got sick?
I’m at 8k now which is my pb, but I never really knew anyone who liked to run. I just accidentally discovered it, now I’m sorta getting more interested. These tips make sense, the interval training, and increasing by 10percent, I think I’ll be ready for 10k soon.
Is there a rule for how much should I run in a week? I train for competitive swimming and running, but I’m not really the best… I did around 19 in my last 5k and around 33 min in my last race (8k). I’m training like 15km per week. What should I aim for my weekly mileage?
hi Harry. Any advice on how to recover from plantar fasciitis instantly? Have you ever experienced that while adding up the mileage? I would like to get back in training but it´s a bit of a hustle to run this way at the moment!
Great job!!! Looks like you had fun. Glad you got to finish.
This is a superb and comprehensive guide. Following these tips for amateurs or even regular runners will see significant improvements.
I have always wanted to do a Disney 5K so this video gets me so excited to do it someday! I would definitely need to train for it because I am a horrible runner �� I loved your Rapunzel outfit! Your hair came out so cute!! �� and love the Pascal on your shoulder! Too bad it was cold and rainy �� but props to you and congrats on running your first 5K! ������
Waking up that early sounds rough but it’s still such a fun idea to run around the parks while it’s empty! Love that you can stop to meet the characters! I had no idea that was a thing! Too bad the lines were so long!
Loved all the photos you got!! �� especially the one when you crossed the finish line!
