“Training for excellence, with excellent training.”

When you constantly set faster times at your local Park Run you will have achieved something special for yourself. Designed for Beginner & Intermediate runners who are looking to improve their 5km time at their local Park Run event, the primary goal of this training plan is to make you FASTER.

Crafted by myself, Ray Boardman PGDipSportsMed, PGDipRehab, PGCertSc (Exercise Science), BSc (Anatomy), DipSportsStudies this plan encapsulates my passion for the sport, my experience from completing hundreds of running events and triathlons and my success coaching hundreds of runners and triathletes.

Starting when every you want to, this plan progresses through each week going through four distinct phases each 4 weeks long. It includes four runs each week. Although not necessary, I recommend using a heart rate monitor in conjunction with a GPS watch (such as a Garmin).

Prior to using this plan, you should be able to complete a 45min run comfortably.

Purchase of this plan gives you access to my fortnightly coaching calls where you can ask me any training or racing related questions.
