How to PR in the 5k || Weekly Workout Plan

How to structure training ⬇️ If doing 2 workout per week: 1 threshold session every week and then alternate between VO2Max and Pace for the other session. Try to space the workouts 2-3 days apart. On the other days of the week, run easy, cross train, or rest. If possible, try to do one run during the week that’s a little longer (20-25%) than the others. If doing one workout per week: do a threshold session every other week and alternate between VO2Max and Pace for the other weeks. Try to have the workout on the same day every week so you’re equally fresh for it 😎. If possible, do a longer easy run (20-25% longer than normal) 2-3 days after the workout. Remember not to increase either mileage or intensity too quickly. So if you’re just getting started, do easy runs for a few weeks, slowly building up mileage. Then, try adding one workout per week and if that feels good, add another one a few weeks later! Always listen to your body and adjust training as needed f
