A 16 week marathon training plan.

This plan is perfect for the first time marathoner and has also lead athletes to sub three hour finishes.

The plan is based on 3-4 runs per week with suggestions for two strength and conditioning sessions.

Runs start at thirty minutes in duration and grow gradually to runs of three hours in duration.

The plan gives instructions for using heart rate zones and pace zones. It also gives full instructions for conducting field tests to calibrate your zones and track progress.

As the volume grows throughout the plan recovery weeks are included.

The plan includes a full taper period.

This plan would match very well with the results from our VO2 Max testing.
