Training Guidelines
Mount Runners and Walkers

Mount Runners and Walkers 10km

Sunday 6th June 2021

This week by week guideline is designed to give a basic training structure and help you finish comfortably.

You should be able to comfortably walk 5km, and walking at least three times a week before you start.

Remember, no one training plan can suit all.

To train as effectively as possible, we recommend an individualised training plan.

We recommend two strength and conditioning sessions be included in each week, focusing on runners strength.

10KP (10K Pace) is your estimated pace for the 10k; for example, if you aim to run the 10km in 1 hour, your 10KP is 6:00/km.
