Your race distance, target time, and race date, from a first 5K to a marathon PR.
The days you can train, and the mileage you are actually running right now.
Every week to race day, with paces, heart rate zones, recovery weeks, and a taper.
A complete week-by-week plan to race day. Each day is a specific session with a distance, pace range, and heart-rate zone, built around the days you can actually train. The week below is one example from a generated plan, not a template you follow as-is.
One sample week. Yours will look different depending on your race, current mileage, and available training days, and later weeks change as the plan builds, recovers, and tapers.
Good training shouldn't cost $20 a month.
Most running plans fall into two extremes: generic PDFs that ignore your fitness and schedule, or coaching and apps that charge every month. I spent over 18 months building a rule-based algorithm that writes a real plan around your race, your current fitness, and the days you can actually run. It's free, and it stays free.
