Because the distances covered are fairly short, consistency is vital for this schedule. Most of the runs can be done in approximately 30mins, so you must find time to run three days a week during weekdays. The long runs in the second part of this programme are vital. If you have done nothing like this before, do them in loops from home of four to six miles each, so that you can call in for a drink or to leave surplus clothing. The drawback is that it is mentally tougher to go out for another lap when you are tired!
