HOW TO GO FROM COUCH TO 5K IN 3 WEEKS!

The goal isn’t to set any time records, it is to finish the race and have fun.
You will feel great about accomplishing a personal goal and helping to
raise money for an important cause.

We are sure many of you have thought about participating in a
race in the past – so just dive in!

You have no time to waste so let’s get started!
Signing up for the race will force you to get training.

Pre-Exercise: 5 minute warm-up, which can be a speedy walk, a slow jog or dynamic stretch like we do in Outdoor JF Classes
Day 1: Jog 2 minutes/walk 1minute repeat for 3 miles
Day 2: Jog 3 minutes/walk 1minute repeat for 3 miles
Day 3: Jog 4 minutes/walk 1minute repeat for 3 miles
Day 4: Jog 3 minutes/walk 30 seconds repeat for 3 miles
Day 5: Jog 2 minutes/walk 30 seconds repeat for 3 miles
Continue increasing jog time and decreasing walk time until race day.
Post-Exercise: 5 minute cool down and static stretch (no bobbing or bouncing)
