Learn how to run your best marathon and get the most out of your training.
There's no shortage of advice out there on how to train for a marathon and yet it can be hard to know what will work best for you.
Choose from six training plans, each pitched at a different level of mileage, intensity and experience. The plans are backed up by a wealth of essential information and advice on how to train, race, eat and recover. Learn how to:
– assess yourself and set a realistic goal
– adjust your diet to optimise training and recovery
– get your brain onside to resist fatigue and overcome discomfort
– stay healthy during training and respond to injuries
– master the skill of racing.
Run Your Best Marathon is here to change all that with the expertise of running coach Sam Murphy. Whether you're looking to step up to the marathon for the first time or to better previous performances over the distance, Sam's runner-centred approach will help you prepare for and race your chosen marathon to the best of your ability.
