Intermediate Marathon Training Plan

About Your Plan

  • The goal of all of our plans is to get you to the finish line healthy!

    These comprehensive plans include base miles, running drills, strength training to keep you strong, and prehab to stave off the most common running injuries.

  • This may not look like the plans you’re used to.

    You’ll notice there are ranges for (almost) every run. This is designed to give you options to do less when you need to listen to your body (and you should!).

  • Remember, you’ll have success whether you follow the high-end range or the low-end range numbers – less can be more when it comes to training!

    At the end of the day, you need to be able to let your body (not the plan!) dictate the training. The plan is a guide and can be modified to meet your needs. If there are days that you are tired or don’t feel like running, lift or cross-train instead! Or REST! It’s better to show up at the start line a little undertrained and uninjured than overtrained and hurt. You got this!

In your plan, you’ll notice you have run workouts, prehab, and strength workouts. You can find detailed instructions and walk throughs for each of those workouts in these links:
