 This programme can be done outside, treadmill or both.

 4 sessions a week is just a guide if you are able to train then have the next day off then great but in today’s busy lifestyle that is not always possible. If you have to train on consecutive days the so be it.

Weeks 1 – 3 are a progressive build up, the main aim is to start increasing you running but also the amount of time spent on your feet.

All good runners know when to take a day off, if you feel tired or have picked up and illness take an extra day off.

 After you run drink plenty of after and have something to eat as well as a good stretch and relax!

 Good Luck!
