Is This Plan For You? Most marathon personal bests are lost in the final 10 km. This plan targets that specific failure point.

  • Marathon-Pace Specificity: Long runs build to 32 km with up to 16 km at goal pace, so the effort is rehearsed under genuine fatigue.
  • Aerobic Durability: Mid-week medium-long runs raise the volume you can absorb, which is what protects the final quarter of the race.
  • Balanced Weekly Rhythm: Five runs per week — one long, two quality, two easy — plus optional strength work.
  • Fuelling Under Fatigue: Carbohydrate targets are prescribed on every long run and progressively increased, training gut tolerance alongside fitness.

Smart Workouts That Sync Directly to Your Watch Powered by TrainingPeaks, every run is built around precise target zones (Heart Rate or Pace) rather than vague effort descriptions.

  • Automatic Device Sync: Workouts sync straight to your Garmin, Coros, Suunto, or Apple Watch.
  • Real-Time Guidance: Press start and let screen prompts guide your warm-up, target intervals, and recoveries lap by lap.
  • Zero Guesswork: Log on, view your targets for the day, sync, and execute.
Your Training Benefits
  • Daily Personalized Workouts: Structured around your current fitness baseline so you always train at the correct intensity.
  • Strength & Conditioning: Optional time-efficient strength programs built to improve running economy and reduce injury risk.
  • Exclusive Video Resources: In-plan videos covering running form, race-day fuelling, and pacing strategy.
  • Fast Email Support: Get prompt answers directly from your coach whenever questions pop up about your training plan.
  • Risk-Free Guarantee: Finding the plan too easy or hard? We’ll swap it for a different level within 2 weeks of your purchase. Just email us.

Included with this plan: Marathon fuelling protocol, split-by-split pacing plan, and a race-week schedule. Pairs directly with sweat testing and INSCYD metabolic profiling from the Performance Lab.
