This plan is for experienced runners who are looking for a very marathon specific training plan. This plan is mostly made up from my pre- Olympic preparations and is a tough plan. You may need to balance the plan to suit your requirements, which we can do in our weekly calls. If your looking to improve and get faster over the marathon distance this is for you. This is not for the faint hearted.
Hi, I am Liz Yelling Olympian and Commonwealth Bronze medalist in the Marathon event (2.28 PB- pre shoes). I am also a level 3 UKA coach and have been coaching for over 20 years. I believe it is important to empower your athletes to teach then to understand what works for them. Many of my generic plans are watered down versions of my Olympic marathon training and it is great to support that with coaching input either by phone or email. I hope you enjoy my plans. Have fun and run!
