Ready for the
marathon ?

For all those who already have a solid running base or endurance sports experience.

To finish a marathon in good health and successfully, you should have achieved a regular endurance performance over the past few months. Have you already been able to run for 2 hours at a time and are able to regenerate for 3-4 running sessions per week? Then nothing stands in the way of the 12-week plan.

Thanks to the 12-week structure and continuous, smart training stimuli, both marathon rookies can finish their first marathon and experienced runners can set a new best time.

If you book the 12-week Kickass Marathon package with the promotional code 12WEEKSMARATHON, you will get access to all the benefits of Kickass Run training with a 10% discount for the first 3 months of your subscription.

We have put together the 12-week package for you in the training plan library (for all vibes: RHYTHM, PEAK, ELEVATE)

We have also set up 6 exclusive marathon coaching calls in which we guide all marathon starters through their training.

You can find all the other benefits of Kickass Run training in the next section.

• 12 week marathon plan templates for all categories: RHYTHM, PEAK, ELEVATE
• In addition, training plan templates for the distances 10km, 21km and marathon, which you can then adapt individually to your everyday life. The training plan templates include the complete preparation for the season with 2 cycles per year so you can prepare perfectly for spring and fall runs.
• Premium access to our AZUM training platform
• Compatibility with common sports devices and platforms (Garmin, Polar, Wahoo, Zwift…)
• Targeted training control by creating your metabolic profile in AZUM
• Instructions for the implementation of units
• Fueling recommendation
• Weekly online check-ins with our Kickass coaches and the Kickass community for direct exchange
• Video training instructions for yoga, strength and mobility training and technique exercises

All Kickass running plans, which are scientifically based and tried and tested in practice, are available on Kickass as a subscription. This means you have access to all plans at any time and can decide 100% flexibly how you want to organize your training. With Kickass, you become your own coach to help you reach your goal.

There’s no AI here – you get plans and content from people for people, because we know what everyday life as an athlete entails.

In addition, we offer you full support with the implementation of your training in the form of weekly check-ins and additional marathon coaching calls during the 12-week marathon preparation.

Here you can discuss questions about your training with the Kickass coaches and the community. In addition to the pure training guidelines, our plans always include a description of what the goal of the session is and how you should implement the training in the best possible way.

In short: Kickass offers running training with brains. So you can reach your goal healthily and with pleasure.

Having fun during training is essential for progress and improved performance. That’s why we’ve given a lot of thought to a meaningful categorization of runner types and how training planning can be designed sensibly. This is how the RHYTHM, PEAK and ELEVATE vibes came about.

RHYTHM: you already have running experience but want to prepare for a goal in a targeted and structured way for the first time?

PEAK: are you an experienced runner, ambitious and maybe even aiming for new best times?

ELEVATE: ambitious runners and endurance athletes can find plans here that prepare them specifically for a goal by combining cycling and running.

Please note: We do not currently offer running plans for absolute beginners.

“In 12 weeks to the marathon” is the Kickass offer to accompany you over 3 months to your marathon goal.

With the promotional code 12WEEKSMARATHON you will receive a 10% discount over 3 months if you register between June 21 and July 21.

You are also a customer of our Kickass Run training and can access all the benefits of the regular subscription including the partner discounts and the marathon coaching calls of the 12-week marathon special.

In the 12-week Kickass Marathon package, the training blocks up to race day are already summarized for you.

Are your next goals already waiting for you after your marathon? Then go straight into the next cycle via the transition phase. You can find all the plans in the training plan library on our AZUM training platform.

Of course. You alone decide on your training plan and should even adapt the sessions in our AZUM training platform to suit you and your everyday life. This is also what sets our training apart from others. Kickass offers you templates and not a rigid plan. With simple clicks you can move, change and, if necessary, delete units. The plan should suit you and your everyday life, but also your stress level, cycle and goals.

In any case. A healthy menstrual cycle and a healthy hormonal balance are the basis for athletic performance and performance development – Laura Philipp is a pioneer and role model here. That’s why you can train in a cycle-sensitive way in all Kickass training programs. You will find out and learn exactly how this works during the process.

In addition to functional running clothing and suitable running shoes, you will ideally need a heart rate sensor and a sports watch (Garmin, Polar, etc.) to train effectively. A running power meter (e.g. Stryde) is an advantage, but definitely not a must. If you opt for the “ELEVATE” category, a bike and/or roller with a power meter is an advantage, as the plans explicitly include cycling-specific sessions.

With the Kickass subscription, you not only receive all training plans, but also a premium account with AZUM, our training platform where you can manage your training. But that’s not all! As long as you are an active Kickass athlete – i.e. you have a current subscription – you can enjoy all the benefits such as weekly online check-ins with the coaches, the Kickass Knowledge Hub (with lots of useful information about training), discounts on other Kickass services such as performance diagnostics, bike fitting, 1:1 call and our partner discounts.

The 12-week Kickass Marathon package is designed for 3 months to prepare you for your marathon. However, there is no minimum term, i.e. you can cancel at any time (see point: Is there a notice period?).

However, we know that training success and performance development can only be achieved through continuous training and build-up. That’s why we advise you to build up your training over at least these 3 months. If you do not cancel your subscription, you will remain an athlete in Kickass Run Training and continue to enjoy all the benefits of the subscription.

Of course. As soon as you book the package, your one-off 14-day free trial period starts – unless you were already a Kickass athlete. During this period, we will show you all the benefits of Kickass and you can familiarize yourself with all the content and features at your leisure. If you don’t like it, you can cancel at any time within these 14 days.

You can cancel the current subscription at any time. The subscription then ends at the end of the current billing period.

The first 14 days are free if you are a new Kickass customer. From then on, you pay €50/month and enjoy all the benefits of being a Kickass Run Training athlete.

With the promotional code 12WEEKSMARATHON you save 10% on the monthly subscription price in the first 3 months.

You can cancel your subscription by clicking on “Edit profile” in AZUM. This will take you to the subscription administration and you can select “Cancel as soon as possible”.
