LEVEL 3 Marathon Training Plan
LEVEL 3 Marathon Training Plan
This program is designed for the advanced runner who is currently running 5 or 6 times per week and has done so for some time. This runner has most likely run several marathons already and followed a 16-week marathon plan before. Your total running volume per week should be above 60 km per week and at this point you should not be feeling pains lingering.
This is the marathon training plan I personally follow. In the beginning it is supposed to feel easy. If you are used to building up to more miles you can ask about tweaks to this program in the Facebook group.
This program has 6 runs per week with one rest day. You may cross-train in addition to add more volume. I recommend zone 1 and 2 cross-training sessions and keep your lactate threshold sessions as runs. If you feel injuries coming up, switch runs for cross-training and still follow the same workouts.
It starts with a GOAL & PURPOSE section before a 16-week overview of the entire plan. You will also get access to a Facebook group with other marathoners. After the 16-week training plan there is a 30-page TIPS & RESOURCES section to teach you all the components of marathon training. Changing the plan according to your life, schedule, and how you are responding to the training is key.
GOOD LUCK:)
