March 15th progression run session for all abilities. It should be anywhere between 3 miles and 10 miles in distance. If you are fairly new at this, then start with the 3 miler. It should be based on your personal goals and what event you are training for. If you are training to improve your 5k time or run a solid 10k, then a progression run of 5-7 miles is ideal.
The objective of this run is to get faster as you go. This is one of my personal favorites. Have some fun with it. So set your watch and get out there and crush it!
COACHING TIP: Don’t go out too hard on your first few miles as it will make the latter miles really hard to run at a faster pace. Ease into the run and push harder on the last mile or two.
I managed to get a 10 mile progression run done. It wasn’t perfect, but pretty close. That takes some mental math to get it right 😀
