  \"between\" distance. The 15K offers a challenge for those who have run their
  first 5K and 10K races and want to go a bit further without quite committing
  to a marathon, or even a half marathon. Experienced runners enjoy the 15K,
  because it offers a different distance, one to relieve boredom. I always have
  liked running 15K races and have had some of my best times and performances at
  this 9.3-mile distance, as well as in slightly longer 10-mile races. [**SEE
  ALL 15K & 10 MILE PROGRAMS**](#program-list) Click on the links below for
  access to 15K training programs for Novice, Intermediate and Advanced runners.
  If you are new to running or haven't run a race as long as 15K, you probably
  will want to choose my Novice Program. It features three days of running plus
  two days of cross training. Long runs peak at 8 miles, just short of your race
  distance. On two days, I suggest you do some strength training combined with
  stretching. One day is dedicated to rest. More experienced runners may want to
  select my Intermediate Program. It is one step up in degree of difficulty from
  the Novice program, featuring five days of running--and one of those days
  features speedwork: tempo runs and training on the track. Long runs peak at 10
  miles, further than you'll run in the actual 15K race.I also suggest that
  Intermediate runners strength train two days a week as well as cross train.
  One day is also dedicated to rest. Only the most seasoned runners should
  select my Advanced Program. It's tough and features six or seven days of
  running. (Advanced runners are given the option of running or resting on
  Fridays.) It also contains two days of speedwork on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
  Long runs peak at 13 miles. No cross-training, since Advanced runners usually
  prefer to run, not bike, swim or walk. Only a small percentage of runners can
  prosper following a training program this tough, so think twice before
  selecting it. For the full 10-week schedules, click on one of the links to the
  Novice, Intermediate, or Advanced programs. On these screens, you will also
  find instructions on how to do the different workouts, but for more detailed
  instructions plus extra training advice and tips, consider signing up for one
  of my Virtual programs, available through TrainingPeaks. [Click

  the menu listing all of my Virtual training programs. For ten weeks leading up
  to the 15K or 10-mile race of your choice, I will send you daily emails
  telling you how to train. So lace up your running shoes. It's time to start
  training for your next 15K or 10-mile race."
