This plan is great to jump into after an extended break from running or to build fitness and strength before jumping into one of our longer, distance-specific training plans. The idea is to build the habit of running again without the pressure of high-volume or high-intensity training. Like the name suggests, we are just building a base to then use to springboard to our next goal.

Feel free to plug in this four-week low-intensity block any time of year when you want a little structure or use it as a soft launch into a different 8-12 week plan.
