RUN FAST,

10 WEEK TRAINING GUIDE TO
BECOMING FASTER AND STRONGER
4:56500#
Adam Klink
Crossfit Krypton, Head Coach
In order to do this, I had to do two very different
types of training, balancing the strength component of
the squat and the endurance component of the run.
Each week, I ran three times and squatted twice. You
will notice that the volume in this training is nothing out
of the ordinary. The most important thing to remember
in what I did is the insensity at which I trained. Every
single time I ran, it was all I had. No matter what the
weight on the bar, I tried to stand it up as fast as I possibly could.
I HAD A GOAL
TO RUN A
SUB 5:00 MILE
& HIT A 500LB
BACK SQUAT IN
THE SAME DAY.
Growing up I was a multi-sport athlete and went off
to play collegiate soccer. Since then I have been training
and competing in crossfit at a high level for the past 8
years. I was looking for a new goal in my fitness and
rembered Dave Castro’s Challenge in his book that he
released in 2017. On my initial test day, I ran a 5:46 mile
and hit a 485lb back squat in the same hour.
My hope is that you will use this training program to set a goal for yourself. Set a realistic goal - a
goal you can see yourself achieving within a 2-3 month
period. Commit to the program, do as many of the running and squatting days as possible, and you will see
improvement in both of these areas of fitness.
-Adam Klink
If you haven’t been running
consistently, follow these two weeks
of training below.
Take two weeks beforehand to build up your running.
Week 1: start with three days of 12 to 15 minutes of
easy running (conversation pace).
Week 2: complete three days of 15 to 20 minutes of
easy running.
This should help prevent some annoying injuries
(such as shin splints) when you start the program.

• Stretch
• 4 x 80m strides – strides are fast, up-tempo runs just under a sprint.
• 1 x 200 at ‘pace’ – do this to get your proper pace down for the 1st
interval. Rest 3 to 4 min and start your workout.

Week 1
MONDAY
Running - track workout
• Standard warm-up*
• Workout: 1 mile run for time
• Standard cool-down**
This is your time trial to see where you are at. Go to a track or use a GPS
watch/phone. (Preferably a track – Note that a mile is 1609.34 meters, so
step back 9 big paces from the start line for a typical 1,600m. That will be
the mile start line). Once you run your mile, give yourself a realistic ‘goal’
mile you want to run. Then base your workout paces on that ‘goal’ mile.
You can do it!!

your 1RM, we will use it for percentage work moving forward.
