FAQ - Condensed Version: Effort Levels (The 1-10 Scale) - 5/10 (Recovery): Super easy, low-intensity movement. - 6/10 (Easy): Comfortable, conversational pace (walk the hills if needed). - 7–8/10 (Tempo): "Comfortably uncomfortable"; heavy breathing but manageable. - 8–9/10 (Hard): High intensity for short intervals; back off if you feel totally gassed. Program Flexibility - Distance vs. Time: The program prioritises time and effort over distance. If the goal is a 30-minute run, it doesn't matter if you cover 3km or 6km—consistency is the goal. - Run/Walk: For longer sessions, using a run/walk strategy is perfectly fine. - Terrain: You aren't stuck on the road. Trails, tracks, or hills are all great—just adjust your pace to maintain the target effort level. Scheduling & Experience - Event Timing: * 8–12 weeks out: Start from Week 1 (experienced runners may skip Week 1). - Running Frequency: The program often prescribes fewer runs to make room for strength, mobility, and recovery.
