I’m already running distances greater than the distances scheduled. Do I have to stay within the schedule or can I continue to run my current distances?

If you are not experiencing any injury and your running or walking has been consistent, then staying the course with your routine is fine until the scheduled training distance reaches your distance.

The first seven weeks of the program are to establish a base fitness level. Some members already have this base and we do not want them to regress from that level.
