Plan Description

This plan is appropriate for newer runners preparing for their first Ultra and for more experienced runners who need or prefer a relatively low-volume training program. Before you begin the plan, build your training to the point where you are running at least three times per week with the longest run of 10 miles or more.

100% Structured Workouts. Each workout is pace guided so that it is completely unique to you and your currently FTP. By performing the 10KM FTP running test within the plan you will be able to work out your FTP which when applied to your TrainingPeaks account will allow your plan to continually change as you progress through the programme.

On supported devices, including many Garmin models, each workout can be exported to the device, which will automatically guide you through the session with duration, lap, and intensity prompts. Workouts do not have to be exported to be performed effectively, as the detailed descriptions provide all the information you need to successfully complete the workout.

Here at Recovery Lab UK we wish you the every best with your running programme and would love to here about your progress. Don't forget to tag us on your social media platforms @recoverylabuk and use the hashtag #RecoveryLabUK, we would love to support you throughout your journey!
