The Details

This 12-week program is best for someone tackling a 10K (6.2 miles) for the first time, coming back from injury or pregnancy, or wanting to run a strong effort on 10K race day and cross the finish line with a smile on her face. Athletes ready for this plan should be able to run/walk three or four miles comfortably.

Optional walk breaks are built into the workouts through Week 7; if you need to continue to take them after that, feel free. (Forward motion at any speed is the key.) You’ll run a 5K at the end of Week 8, and we’ll help you use your finishing time from that effort to figure out your pace for the culminating 10K.

BIGGEST WEEK OF TRAINING: 17-20 miles + two cross training sessions

LONGEST LONG RUN DISTANCES: One 7 miler, one 8 miler

CROSS TRAINING + STRENGTH TRAINING INCLUDED? Most weeks include two days of cross training. There are strength circuits three times weekly, as well as a prehab routine Coach Amanda designed. Most of the circuits require just your body weight; a few require exercise bands.

FIRST AND PEAK WEEKS: (workouts explained fully in the program)

All your workouts are accessible via a Training Peaks Account. This free training tool will help you chart the nearly daily growth of your endurance base. It also sends you a daily email with your workouts for today and tomorrow so you can plan accordingly.

Coaches Jess + Amy are here to help you over speed bumps and answer your questions—and we promise, they’ll never blow a whistle in your face. Not only have they designed every facet of your program from your first step through your finish line, there’s also a weekly newsletter filled with advice and tips that corresponds to your training program.

What’s more, your coaches also post a weekly Ask the Coach column on the private Facebook page, where you can comment with anything that’s on your mind. (If you’re not a Facebooker, you can email us with your question.) Finally, we host regular calls to talk through pacing, injuries, and plenty of other helpful + entertaining topics.

Upon registration, you will receive a package stocked with training essentials, including GU Roctane Drink Mix, two GU Energy items (an Energy Gel and GU Chews); a pair of blister-banishing Wrightsock running socks; a 2-oz. bottle of Sweat X Odor Eliminator spray; and an AMR sticker for your water bottle or laptop. Over $25 worth of swag!

QUESTIONS + ANSWERS

This 12-week program is best for someone tackling a 10K (6.2 miles) for the first time, coming back from injury or pregnancy, or wanting to run a strong effort on 10K race day and cross the finish line with a smile on her face. Athletes ready for this plan should be able to run/walk three or four miles comfortably.

No. The fee is for the comprehensive, 12-week training program, unlimited support, miles of resources, exclusive podcasts, and swag package, which will help you achieve a strong 10K. At the end of the training cycle, you will participate in the organized 10K of your choice; you can also choose to run a 10K on your own, if that works better for you.

Yep—and we’ve heard again and again it’s worth it. Staying committed and motivated during the days, weeks, and, yes, months of training can be ridiculously hard. If you can do that—and these programs are all about accountability and inspiration—race day becomes a celebratory victory lap, not a slog full of self-doubt.

Two of the strength routines include resistance bands, so if you’d like to purchase those, that would be a good investment. (Hello, hip stability!)

Within a few weeks of registration, every participant in a Train Like a Mother program receives a stocked swag package with some of our favorite training essentials. Domestic shipping is now FREE for all merchandise and training swag packages.

We are no longer able to ship internationally, including to Canada. That said, we invite all international runners to participate in any of our online programs! Just email us at tlamclub@anothermotherrunner.com and we will help you bypass the shipping at checkout.

We definitely want this to work into your life and your running lifestyle. You can email us within 2 weeks of starting the program and we will set you up with another plan or a partial credit for an upcoming challenge. We will not be able to issue a straight-up refund.

With a smart training plan, doable strength training, and advice on foam rolling and other self-care, we’re going to do our best to keep you injury-free. That said, if you have an injury or illness that totally slays your training, let us know within two weeks. We’ll work with you to get you a partial credit for an upcoming program.
