How to train for a 10k

A 10k is 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) - one of the most popular race distances in the world. It’s a favorite for beginners aiming beyond 5k as well as seasoned runners pushing for speed or using it as a stepping stone to longer events.

The 10k strikes the perfect balance: tougher than a 5k but less demanding than a half marathon, making it accessible while still offering a real challenge. For first-timers, it’s an achievable milestone. For experienced runners, it’s a chance to sharpen pace and test performance.

Success comes down to consistency. Running a few times each week builds endurance and rhythm, while having a clear goal - like signing up for a race - keeps motivation high. Running with friends or a local club can also make training more fun and keep you accountable.

The best way to pull everything together is with a structured plan. Runna will create a fully personalized 10k program based on your fitness, goals, and schedule. We will guide you through every step so you stay consistent, stay motivated, and get to race day ready to run your best.

Uitleg over workouts

Your 10k training includes a mix of sessions - each with a clear purpose. Here’s what they are and how they’ll help you on race day.

Rustige loop

Easy runs are slower, conversational-paced runs. They build fitness while giving your body time to recover, so you’re fresh enough to get the most out of the harder sessions.

Heuvels

Long runs are steady efforts at an easy pace, gradually building distance. They develop the endurance and efficiency you need to cover 10k comfortably and maintain strong form through the later miles.

Intervalsessies

Hill reps are hard efforts run uphill with an easy jog or walk back down. They build leg strength, power, and running form - helping you maintain efficiency and drive when the 10k pace starts to bite.

Lange termijn

Intervals are short, fast bursts with recovery in between. They improve your top-end speed and running economy, so 10k pace feels more comfortable and sustainable.

Herstelloop

Recovery runs are very short, very easy jogs after tough sessions. They help loosen muscles, improve circulation, and get your legs ready for the next key workout without strain.

Versnellingen

Strides are short, fast bursts of running (10–20 seconds) that boost speed and running form. They sharpen leg turnover and form, leaving you feeling quicker and more efficient.

Temposessies

Tempo runs are sustained efforts at a “comfortably hard” pace. They build the speed endurance needed to hold your goal 10k pace from start to finish.

Drempellopen

Threshold refers to your ability to manage lactate buildup during exercise. In your plan, interval sessions target running at or just below your lactate threshold for maximum gains. They train you to manage fatigue and maintain a strong rhythm through the middle kilometers of your 10k.
