This 15K training plan involves running three days per week for 12 weeks. ![]() ![]() Here is some essential information to know when using this training program… Your Running Schedule: If you can’t do a mile and a half now, spend a few weeks working up to that – and then you’ll be ready to start this 12 week schedule. If you can do 1.5 miles now, this plan will get you to that 15K finish line successfully. Most people get scared thinking “yes, I can do a few miles now, but how will I do almost 10 in just a couple months?!”. You should be able to start this plan anytime, as long as you can currently run (or run/walk) 1.5 miles comfortably. ![]() In fact, the 15K training plan I’ve provided here only includes three days a week of running – two short runs and one long run. The 15K (or 10-miler) is a great race for beginners to push themselves, as it requires more time and training than short-distance races – but not so many workouts that it takes a ton of time out of your schedule. Because it’s so close to the 10-mile mark, you can also use this training plan interchangeably to get ready for a 10-mile race too. ![]() Have you done your first 5K and are looking for a new challenge? Or maybe you just started taking up running and want to jump right into a longer distance? Either way, this 15K training plan for beginners might be a perfect option for you!Ī 15K is approximately 9.3 miles, so you’re looking at a distance right in-between the 10K (6.2 miles) and half marathon (13.1 miles). ![]()
