Do I have to sign up for a race to do this program? Nope!! A lot of athletes that I've worked with simply love the sport of running because it challenges them. You can absolutely do this program on your own!
What are the goals of this program? Regardless if you're gearing up for your first race or using this as a personal challenge, the goal of the program is to get you comfortable on your feet while building speed and strength!
How will I get the best results? Get proper sleep (7-9 hours a night is a must)
Dedicated nutrition regimen that consists only of wholesome, natural ingredients (get my nutrition guide in “Insights” section of the app)
Drink at least 100 oz of water daily
Make sure to use active and full rest days to allow muscles to recover
How do you schedule the workouts within a week? This all depends on you and your lifestyle! With the program being 4 runs per week, this allows you some flexibility in case anything comes up with your schedule where you need to reschedule your runs.
Personally my schedule looks like this: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday!
