ABOUT PEACHTREE ROAD RACE TRAINING PLANS
For over 50 years, the city of Atlanta has hosted the Peachtree Road Race 10K on the 4th of July every year. It's now the most popular 10K in the United States. Its 60,000 spots are highly coveted, so you'll want to put your best foot forward if you're lucky enough to gain entry. Train smarter with a customized Peachtree Road Race training program from Custom Training Plans. Whether you're a first-time 10K'er or an experienced runner looking for a new PR, our Peachtree Road Race training plans go beyond mileage schedules. CTP helps you get to the finish line feeling strong, incorporating workouts designed to prepare you specifically for Peachtree.
The wide-ranging field for the Peachtree Road Race attracts everyone from elite, world-class racers to first-time 10K runners. In fact, Peachtree has hosted the United States National Championships for both the Women’s and Men’s 10K, so dedicated racers are in good company. The race begins in Lenox Square and follows Peachtree nearly all the way to Piedmont Park. Right off the line, runners face a short, gradual rise over the first mile. Then, it’s all downhill until mile 3 begins. Our Peachtree Road Race training plans prepare you to conserve your energy for the second half of this hot, humid, and hilly race.
Throughout the entire race, runners are cheered on by tens of thousands of spectators who line the route from start to finish, handing out snacks and drinks or cooling runners off with water guns. This is especially helpful at the halfway point, when the road turns upward at Cardiac Hill, a punishing half-mile-plus climb. This hill is famous for its difficulty, so it’s important to train properly to prepare yourself for this demanding feature. Unlike free 10K training plans, a Peachtree Road Race training plan addresses the race’s unique features. Our Peachtree Road Race training program preps you for the rolling terrain with workouts that help you increase your endurance so you’ll have something left in the tank as you head south.
The last half of the course rolls and rolls, and Atlanta’s hot and muggy summer weather can place extra stress on any runner’s body. If you’re undertrained, you’re more likely to suffer an injury that can stop your race in its tracks. CTP’s Peachtree Road Race training plans are developed by experts and tailored to your current fitness level, race experience, and the features of the course, helping you to train more thoroughly than free online 10K training programs. Our customized training plans help runners of all levels increase their stamina so you can turn onto 10th Street ready to finish strong.
At Custom Training Plans, we think you should train for every race – individually. Using a training program that takes you and your race into account can help you build your cardiovascular strength and fitness safely. CTP has a Peachtree Road Race training program for everyone from those going from “couch to 10K” to already-avid racers. Take your training to the next level by choosing a CTP Peachtree Road Race training plan.

Our method
-
With the expertise of USATF certified coaches and physical therapists, we built an advanced model to weigh the effects of runner-specific variables on training outcomes.
-
We analyzed unique characteristics of hundreds of races across the country to build a “race profile” into our model that accounts for elevation gain, altitude, time of year, and more.
-
Our model generates a unique training plan for you and your race, and all plans are reviewed by a coach and hand-tweaked before they make their way to you.
