Dublin Marathon 16-Week Training Plan (WattsUp Training System)
Prepare for the Dublin Marathon with a structured 16-week marathon training plan designed to progressively build speed, endurance, and race-specific fitness.
This plan is primarily pace-based, using defined training zones for Easy, Marathon, Half Marathon, 10K, and 5K efforts to guide all key sessions and ensure precise training stimulus throughout the build.
Overview
The plan follows a structured, progressive approach that develops fitness in phases:
Build running economy and speed
Develop aerobic strength and threshold fitness
Transition into marathon-specific endurance work
Peak and taper for race day performance
Each phase is designed to build on the previous block, ensuring you arrive at the marathon with the fitness and durability required to execute your goal pace effectively.
