From every continent, all over the world at the very same time, someone
will be running with you! Join a truly global community of fellow runners
in a free, non-commercial event that celebrates the joy of running, with the
challenge of a race! Share your local experience with a world-wide audience
of fellow runners in the Phedippidations World Wide Half Marathon, Zen Run 10K, and "Kick
the Couch" 5K road race!
This is one of the training programs created for the Phedippidations WorldWide Half Marathon Challenge. There are 4 programs for the Half Marathon and 1 program for the 5k that is part of the World Wide event. The Small, Medium and Large programs are designed for runners of all abilities but are aimed for the new to intermediate runners. The Advanced Program is for runners looking to improve their time and the Kick the Couch 5k program is for people who are new to running.
The names of the programs reference the amount of miles and intensity of the training programs in relation to each other. The Small program has the least amount of miles, but enough workouts to get you to the finish line if you follow the program. The Medium program has more mileage and faster paced workouts. The Large training program has the most mileage of the 3 and incorporates Cross Training days as part of the workout regiment.
There is a PDF document that further explains these 3 programs and you can download it at:
