10km training plans and tips

If this is your first 10km run or you are always training for the next event, our training plans will help you reach your goal.

Designed to help you train in a smart way, you'll find top tips on how you should feel for each 'type' of run.

Our handy training plans are easy to follow, download and ready to refer to.

Beginner 10km (12 week) training plan

This 10km plan is designed for someone who is new to running and wants to finish a 10km in 12 weeks.

In this plan, you'll do two to three runs a week, with rest days to let your body recover. You'll also increase the volume with cross training sessions. This is to get you fitter without adding more impact.

This 12-week plan will take you to race day as safely as possible.

This plan covers 2 to 3 runs a week, with rest days. It increases volume with a few cross training sessions to help get you fitter.

Intermediate 10km (12 week) training plan

If you are comfortable running for 1 hour and want to improve your 10km time, this is the plan for you.

You’ll have probably done several 10k races before and are looking to get faster. We use threshold intervals to really take your training to the next level.

Follow our intermediate 10km training plan for 12 weeks.

If you're looking to improve your 10km time, this plan includes threshold intervals to take you to the next level.

Advanced 10km (12 week) training plan

If you are an experienced 10km runner looking for a challenge, this plan is for you. We kick off with threshold intervals from week one and complete four runs a week, along with conditioning work and cross training.

This plan includes threshold intervals and 4 runs a week, along with conditioning work and cross training. There's a 5km race in week 8 to test your fitness.

The latest news updates from the 2024 Symposium

2024 SABCS®: The future of breast cancer research and care starts here

Estimated Read Time:

cancer research 10k plan

Join nearly 11,000 researchers, clinicians, patient advocates, and supporters from around the world who will shape the future of breast cancer research and care at the 47th annual San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium®.

The 2024 SABCS®, December 10-13 at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center in San Antonio, Texas, will feature the latest clinical trial findings, cutting-edge scientific presentations, and multidisciplinary discussions on every aspect of breast cancer and premalignant breast disease.

Registration is open , and early registration rates are available through September 27. Virtual-only registration is an option for those who are unable to travel, but there are a number of in-person networking and educational opportunities that are not to be missed.

Kate Lathrop, MD

“SABCS started with the idea that you had to bring the basic scientists and the clinicians into the same room, and they had to listen to each other, even when their shared knowledge was maybe 10% or 15%,” said SABCS® Program Director Kate Lathrop, MD, UT Health San Antonio MD Anderson Cancer Center. “Those lanes have to cross in order for discovery to impact patient care. You have to create an environment where the basic scientists, the clinicians, the patient advocates, the people who are working on disparities, prevention, public policy, education, and career development are bumping into each other and learning from each other. That’s what makes SABCS special.”

The 2024 SABCS® Program Planning Committee has constructed a robust program that addresses the whole continuum of breast cancer—experimental biology, etiology, prevention, diagnosis, therapy, and long-term care.

Special sessions will take attendees behind the scenes of recent U.S. Food and Drug Administration approvals, explore prevention and the mechanisms of obesity-related risk, and dive into patient questions about the interplay of treatment with supplements, cannabis, sexual health, exercise, and alcohol. Plenary lectures will shed light on racial disparities in cancer outcomes and look at cell atlases as roadmaps in cancer immunology.

Virginia G. Kaklamani, MD, and Carlos L. Arteaga, MD

The symposium’s highly anticipated general sessions will present late-breaking and practice-changing study results, and numerous educational sessions, poster spotlights, workshops, case discussions, award lectures, and more will cover timely topics in the field, including artificial intelligence. Four days of programming will finish strong as SABCS® Co-Directors Virginia G. Kaklamani, MD, and Carlos L. Arteaga, MD, present the Year in Review session summarizing important recent developments. In addition, the popular View from the Trenches session will prepare attendees to immediately transfer the knowledge gained into daily clinical care.

The 2024 SABCS® will include something for everyone with an interest in breast cancer research and care. Along with a high-quality scientific program, the symposium will offer several career development sessions, countless networking opportunities, and an expansive Exhibit Hall showcasing the latest industry advancements and other amenities. Attendees are also invited to unwind and mingle during the inaugural SABCS® Celebration, a new evening event featuring appetizers, beverages, and live music from ‘80s new wave tribute band The Spazmatics.

Mark your calendars, make plans with friends and colleagues, and register today to secure spots at the world’s premier gathering of breast cancer scientists, clinicians, and advocates!

About the 2025 Cancer Research UK London Winter Run 

about icon

The 2025 Cancer Research UK London Winter Run is a 10k challenge through the heart of the city, passing world famous landmarks, and instantly recognisable areas that have been given a winter spin.

The 2025 edition of the hugely popular, and critically acclaimed, London Winter Run which was launched in 2015 in partnership with Cancer Research UK, and has seen over 100,000 people take part and just over £5 million raised for life-saving cancer research. It regularly receives incredible reviews from those who have taken part.

Why run for Cancer Research UK?

Case study

Mary believes that it's important that we support the charities that find ways to get us away from cancer.

I’m labelled as a cancer patient. I’ve never been patient, so I say I’m on a cancer journey. You may not be on a cancer journey, but it’s really alarming that one in two people will have the label of cancer. It could be your friend, your mother, another relative, even your baby, and it’s so, so important that we support the charities and research that’s finding ways to get us away from this label, so we have a future.
