Ragnar Training Recommendation

We do not object for you to use the Ragnar Recommendation, but we feel that you also do not need to run like crazy to prepare for the race. We are sharing their guide here so you get a feel of different training regimens out there. We are trying to combine the Novie and Intermediate runs together with our Crossfit workouts.


Intermediate Runner:

This program is designed to build endurance and develop strength through hill training. Keep the recovery miles very easy and place the emphasis of your training on the hills and long runs, i.e. make the easy days easier and the hard days harder.
June 15:
Mon 5 Miles
Tues 6 Miles
Wed 5 Miles
Thurs 5 Miles
Fri 5 Miles
Sat 8 Miles
Sunday Rest

Novice Runner:
Run at your own "comfortable" pace for the given amount of time. "Comfortable" might mean walking periodically in order to complete the workout. That's OK; the important thing is that you stick to the length of time allotted for each workout. If you miss a workout don't worry, just start from where you are on the schedule
June 15:
Mon 20 Minutes
Tues Rest or Cross Train
Wed 20 Minutes
Thurs Rest or Cross Train
Fri 15 Minutes
Sat 15 Minutes
Sunday Rest

  1. So, just the clarify, the above is purely informational, right? We can use the cross-fit program on top of what we're doing individually now, and that will be sufficient to prepare us for the race?
