Marathon Training Plan - Level 1 Training Plan

Training Plan
16 weeks

Description

There's a lot to know and learn when it comes to the marathon, which is why I have developed this all-encompassing plan to bring you successfully to the start line of your next (or maybe your first) marathon! The plan starts at 17 miles per week and peaks at 35 miles per week with 4 runs each week. (Plan states 38 miles is peak week because that is race week with the distance of the marathon added in.) There are a variety of workouts in this plan including: interval training, track workouts, hill work, and workouts within long runs to help you get to the start line ready to run a strong and fast marathon. I have also included strength days (and 3 plans for guiding runners in their strength), tips and tricks on nutrition and fueling for race day and your runs, and other helpful advice along the way. (Note: Your plan will be uploaded to your calendar within 48 hours of purchasing the plan.)

Minimum Requirements

Athlete should be running a few times a week with milage around 12 - 15 miles per week.

Hi, I'm Michelle Baxter. I love running around the lakes of Minnesota, running after my two boys, and running competitively in anything from the mile to the marathon. I have been a run coach since 2005 and could not imagine doing anything else. I'm known as @therunnersplate on Instagram and love connecting with others and motivating followers to chase their big, dream running goals. It was my big goal to run a sub-3 hour marathon, and after working very hard for 8 years, having two kids, and enduring some bumps along the road, I ran a 2:58 at CIM (California International Marathon) in 2021.
