Questions? Concerns? The FAQ's are below.
Q: I’m injured, should I skip a week?
A: Don’t just run through an injury. Stop, take some time out and see how the body reacts. It’s ok to miss a couple of days of the plan, but if you miss more than one complete week, it’s best to go back and repeat the previous week’s training.
If you are injury-prone, incorporate cross-training into your plan (cycling, swimming or rowing) to add variety to your routine and help reduce your risk of injury.
Q: I don’t feel like I’m improving or getting any faster?
A: Don’t despair – it takes time to improve as a runner. Each run will be gradually building your strength and fitness, but it might not be till the actual event that you really see the results of your training.
Q: What about my nutrition?
A: To get faster over the 5K distance, you’ll need to stick to your training plan, but also make sure you’re fueling properly.
Try to keep your protein high, take on plenty of carbs before your harder sessions and don’t be afraid to experiment with caffeine.
