Training for a sub 40 minute 10km

It seems some known website enjoy my post to the extend to copy some of the content, flattering somehow but not very professional. (Picture Sean Bailey, Portumna Marathon 2011) In what ever way people read, replicate or interpret it most coaches would agree on the basic principle of following a program. how? by simply Training properly with quality. TRAINING PLAN HERE (Might need a newer design at some stage) Always question yourself, are my goals realistic? This is a 6:26 pace per mile after all! If your personal best is below 45min, with the correct program you can achieve a sub 40min. If your time is up around the 50 min mark, then maybe you should try to work towards a target of 45min. Of course at this stage you won’t break the 40min mark tomorrow, however if you give yourself plenty of time, say 16 weeks with a realistic date which you can work towards, set out your plan and endevour to stick to it, then you are well on the way to achieving your goal.  Pulse Tr
