Just Run - Marathon Race preparation
The finishing touches to a successful half marathon
Activate training planTraining content
In order to develop race-specific form in the last 8 weeks before the competition, the long runs at the weekend are progressively extended to a length of at least 25 km. In addition, there will be specific intervals in race pace. With an additional track session you continue to keep up the speed. Strength training is somewhat reduced in this final phase. Training takes place on a total of 6 days, 5 of which are running sessions. The plan is designed to end with a race on Sunday. If your race is on a Saturday, you can move last week’s sessions up a day and skip the penultimate session.
Target group
Ambitious runners who want to fine-tune their race performance in 8 weeks to set a personal best on the marathon after completing the build-up training.
