About this plan

I’ve designed this for anyone who has recently run a race and is looking to maintain some structure in their training while keeping their running fun before heading into a new dedicated training block for your next goal race.

There are three separate blocks of training that last four weeks each, so you can train for 4 weeks, 8 weeks or 12 weeks using the full plan.

Pace chart included so you know exactly how fast your runs should be.

Full glossary of terms so you'll always know what to do.

Loads of tips each week so you can learn along the way and stay motivated!

Plan Details / Who is this for?

The smallest week is 15 miles / 24km.

The biggest week is 22 miles / 35km.

There are three to four runs each week.

The plan has both miles and kilometres.

12 weeks in length, with three separate '4 week' blocks, so you can easily do 4, 8 or 12 weeks of training.

Suited to someone with current 5k fitness of between 24-35 minutes.

Optional Strength Routine Add On

The 'Plan + Strength Routine' option includes the full plan plus 3 integrated "at home" strength routines with warm up and cool down exercises.

Beginner friendly and easy to follow.

No equipment necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the training plans in miles or kilometers?

We have written the training plans in both miles and kms, both of which are included in the PDF file so you can refer to whichever one suits you.

The pace charts are also in miles and km's too.

How will I receive my plan?

You will receive an email with a link to download your plan straight after purchase.

You can also click a link on the checkout success page.

This will download the PDF file to your computer, tablet or phone. 

What format do the training plans come in?

The plans are a downloadable PDF file which you can view on any device or print off.

You will be emailed the link to download your plan.

Please note the plan can only be downloaded a maximum of 5 times. 

I feel I am in between two training plans, which one should I go for?

Each plan gives the number of days of training per week, so we’d advise going for the one which best fits in with your current lifestyle and commitments.

Also consider the number of miles or km's for the first week and peak week and compare that figure to where you are currently.

The best success will come from following a plan that is achievable given your lifestyle and current fitness.

So much attention to details

So thoughtfully created down to the very last detail. I love the clear structure, explanations, and the strength workouts too! I tried other workout plans and there's really no comparison.

Structure after a half

After completing the beginner's half marathon program, I was looking for some structure to maintain consistency. This plan is great so far! I'm in week 3 and enjoying the variety and challenge. I also appreciate the flexibility it offers by being structured in blocks. On a side note, I've tried many half marathon programs with no success. Ben Parkes' Beginner Program was the first I managed to stick with and complete! Highly recommend it!

Useful plan

Gives me structure on a daily and weekly basis. Particularly like the pacing charts so can see what eg “tempo”or “easy“ means in actual pace I should be running at to achieve target race time
