Your mind is set on your target, you’re ready, willing and able, but what’s your next step? 

At this point most people would search online for a free training schedule. You won’t struggle finding one, there’s plenty around that you can download from most running or charity websites, they’ll usually give you a bunch of numbers, either distances or times that you need to run for each day.

But there’s a big problem with these free 5k training schedules which is that you’ll learn absolutely nothing about running and this reduces your chances of success and increases your risk of suffering from injuries. 

Any good 5k running schedule should include all the following: -
