How it works

Common questions

What is the postpartum return-to-running planner?

It turns minutes per block, blocks or rounds into a session total you can read in one sitting.

Is this a coaching plan?

No. It is arithmetic for a week you already intended.

What if I am injured or unwell?

Stop and get proper advice. A product of two boxes is not rehab.
