Training Plans

Looking for a more flexible, self-guided option? My downloadable training plans on TrainingPeaks are the perfect fit if you're not quite ready for one-on-one coaching but still want structured, intentional programming that gets results.

Each plan is designed with the same care and attention I give my coaching clients — just in a plug-and-play format you can follow at your own pace. You'll get a proven training structure, thoughtful progressions, and clear guidance delivered straight to your TrainingPeaks calendar.

While one-on-one coaching is always the gold standard, this is the next best thing — and a great way to train smart, stay accountable, and build toward your goals with confidence.

Build a Solid Base – 8-Week Running Program

A smart, sustainable plan to help you fall in love with running (or fall back in love).

This 8-week program is designed to gradually build your endurance, strength, and confidence — whether you're brand new to running, coming back after a break, or prepping for longer-distance training like a 50K.

We start with walk/run intervals and slowly increase your running time until you're confidently running for up to 75 minutes by the end of the plan. You’ll train 3–4 days per week, with easy-to-follow workouts that can be done outdoors or on a treadmill — wherever you are, whatever season you're in.

To support your running and keep you injury-free, this plan also includes:

  • 2 strength training workouts per week (no gym required!)

  • 1 full rest day per week

  • Built-in flexibility to move workouts around your schedule

Whether you're just getting started, returning to movement, or building a base before stepping into my 50K training program, this plan is designed to meet you where you are and help you build smart, strong, and sustainably.
