Training Plans for Various Running/Walking Distances


We assembled a variety of training plans for people who might get into running. Running plans were picked based on the following criteria:
  • Minimal Time Commitment: Most programs require under 5 days a week.
  • Common Sense Approach: No meditation, massage, fat camps, etc..
  • Something for Everyone: We provide guidance for beginners, experts, and everyone in between.
  • Don't Re-Invent the Wheel: These training plans were written by experts from other web-sites. We want to provide the best advice possible, so we have no trouble promoting other sites when they are clearly the experts in a given field.

  • A RUNNING PROGRAM FOR BEGINNERS:
    This program that can turn almost anyone into a runner!
    TRAINING FOR A 10K:

    HALF-MARATHON:

    MARATHON TRAINING FOR "BEGINNERS":

    TAKING YOUR MARATHON TRAINING TO THE NEXT LEVEL:

    A WORD OF CAUTION THOSE WHO ARE TRAINING STRICTLY FOR LOOKS!
    You will lose muscle mass if you train for anything more than a 5k - You'll also lose a ton of body-fat though!
    Your muscle-loss can be mitigated by taking the advice outlined in our article about Nutrition.

    Bodybuilders:
    If you have a six pack, running long distances (5 miles or more) will add a small amount of body-fat to your lower abdomen - Just enough to make the lower half of your 6-pack disappear. I think this happens as a self-defense mechanism: The body needs to store energy that it can tap on the next long run.
    No one knows more than a bodybuilder about how amazingly reactive our bodies are to certain kinds of stress. It's truly amazing!

    I use World Class Nutrition because their prices are great, and because they paid me to model for this picture.
    But seriously folks; Their prices are the best I've found anywhere.

    My favorite product?
    The Trioplex bars! Excellent pre and post-workout bars! They also taste good, but who cares about that!
    BTW: Stay away from the Growth Hormone, Creatine, Testosterone, etc.. Some say it's safe, but why even take a chance? For appearance?
    Just because a substance is legal, that doesn't mean it's healthy. IE: Do your homework before buying anything from this or any "nutritional products" web-site.
