In this post I am sharing my 10 mile training plan. This is a 6-week, intermediate running plan that I used to train for the Soldier Field 10 Mile race in Chicago.

In 6 weeks, I am running the Soldier Field 10 Mile race, and I’ve been thinking it’s time to keep track of a training schedule. This is an intermediate training plan based on my running efforts for the past year. As I have written about before in the 6 Week Endurance Challenge, I only run three times per week to avoid injury and maintain the best fitness level possible as a casual runner. I also plan to fit in a sculpt class once a week, and another short weightlifting session if I have time.

Here is the text version of the 10 mile training plan:

10 Mile Training Plan

Week 1: 3.5 miles intervals; 3 miles maintenance; 4 miles long run
Week 2: 3 miles intervals; 4 miles maintenance; 5 miles long run
Week 3: 3.5 miles intervals; 5 miles maintenance; 6 miles long run
Week 4: 3 miles intervals; 5 miles maintenance; 7 miles long run
Week 5: 3 miles intervals; 6 miles maintenance; 9 miles long run
Week 6: 3.5 miles intervals; 4 miles maintenance; 10 mile race!

Hal Higdon also has longer ten week plans to train for a 10 mile race, if you are looking for a novice plan or a more advanced plan.
