Looking For Running Plans That I Can Build On

Question

I'm looking for a plan that will last long time that is run for so many minutes walk for so many instead of run for so many miles I would like to be able to just run around instead of having to figure out how far ive run, right now all I want to do is start running maybe in a while I will do the run for so many miles plans but right now I want to just start. I walk everyday so running is going to be my way of speeding that up so I don't have to leave so early for school or so that I can run home and not be dead tired from it.

is there a site with plans in time instead od distance and I'm thinking like to last me the rest of the year even in winter with snow up to my knees I really want to do this !

Answer 1

Try runnersworld.com for running tips and advice for beginners. They should also have workout plans for people who need to combine walking and running in the first few workouts. For instance, you could walk for a 5 minute warm-up, run for a minute, then walk for 2, and repeat until you hit 25 minutes. Follow through with a 5 minute cool-down with stretches. Then you can improve from there, increasing the amount of time you run. Try mapmyrun.com to map out a course around your neighborhood so you know how many miles you are running. I love this option and have used it many times. Good luck with your running ventures!
