Presented by Spartan Training®

Welcome to Day 22 of the Spartan Running Training Plan.

You’ve made it to the final week of your Spartan Running Training Plan. This week is all about tapering to preserve your energy for running your personal record 5k this week.

During this week, your intensity will not change during your workouts, only your duration. Our strength sets will decrease in sets and repetitions but our weight will remain the same. Hang tough, Spartan, your running goal is in sight.
