The 10 Smiler Training Plan

Share this post

The Granite State Racing Team, a training group for all abilities that meets every Tuesday from April to October in Concord, is led by coach and professional athlete Amber Ferreira. She has prepared a training schedule for anybody who wants to make the Annual Granite State 10-Smiler for the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Concord their goal race. This plan is proven, as we've been following it for the better part of 10 years now, AND you are sure to make tons of like-minded friends.

If you have questions about this plan, come join us on a Tuesday and ask her yourself!

Note: consider joining Runner's Alley on their Thursday and Saturday group runs in Concord to help to keep you on this schedule.
