Frequently Asked Questions
How Do I Know If I’m Ready to Train for a 10K?
You’re ready to begin training if you can jog or run for at least 20 minutes without stopping. You don’t need to be fast—just comfortable moving at your own pace.
If you’re a complete beginner, we help you build fitness with a mix of walking and running, gradually increasing your stamina.
How Many Days a Week Should I Train?
Most runners benefit from 3 to 5 training sessions per week. A good mix includes long runs for endurance, interval training for speed, and recovery days to prevent burnout. If you’re new to running, start with three weekly sessions and gradually add more as your body adapts.
Will This Program Help Me Improve My Time?
Absolutely! Whether you want to complete the race without stopping or shave minutes off your previous time, our structured approach will help you run more efficiently. We focus on pacing, strength-building, and speed work to maximise your potential.
Do You Offer Group Training?
Yes! Our outdoor group training sessions take place at South Beach Wollongong, offering a motivating team environment. We train at Beaton Park Leisure Centre Track for more structured workouts, helping runners refine their technique and pacing. Group training is a great way to stay accountable and push your limits.
What Should I Do to Avoid Injury?
Avoiding injury is key to successful training for the 10K run Wollongong program:
- Gradual Progression: Slowly increase your distance and intensity—never more than 10% per week.
- Proper Warm-ups & Cool-downs: Start each session with dynamic stretching and light jogging. Finish with gentle stretches to aid recovery.
- Strength Training: Stronger muscles support better running mechanics. Core and leg exercises help prevent common injuries.
- Listen to Your Body: If something feels off, rest the day or opt for cross-training instead of running.
- Wear the Right Shoes: Proper footwear can prevent discomfort and reduce joint strain.
How Long Should You Train for a 10K?
Your preparation time depends on your fitness level and experience:
- Beginners: 8–12 weeks to build endurance and complete the distance comfortably.
