Where it takes you
Each activity’s target, workout by workout.
There is no changing weight or timed target to chart from these workouts.
The schedule
Follow the workout order and timing in the program’s notes.
How it works
The program’s own rules, as Catalyst runs them.
Complete all twelve weeks, including the tune-up races and final half marathon. Ordinary mileage is approximate: run comfortably and take walking breaks where appropriate. Choose a pace that matches each effort label. Hills have no fixed length, grade or recovery period. Choose a suitable cross-training activity for its target duration. Where a day offers rest or easy work, or running or cross-training, make that choice yourself.
What you need
No equipment needed.
