RUT & MOUNTAIN RUN TRAINING PLANS
We currently offer 12-week long mountain running plans for five race distances. The 50km, 28km, & 11km plans were designed specifically with The Rut in mind, but are wonderful instructional guides for any individual training for a mountain running race of similar distances & vertical.
All running plans…
Are designed to be scalable to your level of fitness and ability.
Expect that you are beginning the plan after at least an 8-week base building training period.
Designed on a progressive load—3 to 6 week build in volume or intensity, then one recovery week.
Are running only plans. There are no strength workouts included. We suggest certain days of cross-training or supplemental strength exercises but do not provide specific workouts. Check out our Rut Supplemental Strength Plan or General Mountain Strength Plan for specific complementary strength training workouts.
