GMM Training Plan



This is my training plan for the Green Mountain Marathon in October. I'm posting it here in the hopes that some of our long runs will coincide. It'd be nice to do long runs as a group.

The dates are screwed up, so pay no attention to them. I'm currently in the second week of training. I wanted a more challenging plan for this marathon, so I'll be peaking at 50 miles (as opposed to 40) and doing quality workouts (tempo runs and speedwork every Thursday). So far, I like running four days/week (as opposed to five), because it allows me to fully recover and strength train.

4 days/ week is definitely better than 5.

50 miles/week. Nice! That should get you in fine shape.

I'll be doing 18 miles this Sunday if you want to join.
