Welcome to week 10

Total time: 50 minutes
Tuesday
Today is an interval run day: Walk for 5 minutes, then run for 40 minutes. Walk for 5 minutes to cool down. During your run, do five 40-50-second intervals at a faster pace and jog at an easy pace for 60 seconds in between.

Thursday
Walk for 5 minutes, then run for 43 minutes. Walk for 5 minutes to cool down.

Friday
Today you have a choice of either a resistance training session or a non-running session. For a non-running session do 30 minutes of a non-running activity. It can be anything you like: for example, walking, cycling, swimming, yoga, Pilates or a gym class.
Tip: Choose dumbbells (hand weights) or a resistance band that lets you do the exercise for the specified reps, but feel hard towards to end of the set. You may need to progress this as the weeks go by and you get stronger.
Saturday
Today is a complete rest day. Today you’ll be focusing on recovery. Letting your muscles recoup from your workouts is just as important as the workouts themselves.
Sunday
It’s time for another distance run. Don’t forget to record your time so you can track your progress.
Total run distance: 8km continuously
