Warm Up Drills and Cool Down Stretching - An often forgotten part of training are the all important warm up and cool down exercises. Each of these competitive training plans include warm up, cool down and stretching recommendations.

Race Strategy - While not all recreational distance runners take part in road, trail or track racing, local races provide a challenge and a great way to increase your fitness and meet new friends. These programs also include a section on race strategy to help you run your best race.
