I have been an athlete all of my life. I was a 13 time varsity letter earner in high school and a weight lifter for a hot second at my very small college. I got an associates in exercise science and then switched to education.
HOWEVER – ever since I had children I’ve been working out here and there but nothing super serious. My husband informed me a couple of weeks ago that he is signing us up for a 10K in May in Boulder, CO… I was like HOLY MOLY I should probably start getting serious about working out.
Not only am I COMPLETELY out of shape but I also 100% know that I can’t handle running in the rocky mountains without some serious training.

I have about 40 weeks until my race. I need to start out SLOW and build up my endurance little by little. So, I created this training schedule for myself.

Please note: I am NOT A PROFESSIONAL TRAINER. I had a teeny tiny little bit of education years ago. Exercise Science is just that – a science. It’s always changing and so this may not be the BEST way to train for a 10K. This is just what I’m doing.
