Training InformationOur training strategy is very simple and can fit into the busiest of lifestyles!Simply run or walk two or three times each week with one additional long training day per week. On your long training day, add mileage week by week until you reach 13 miles. This peak point should be about two weeks prior to race day. Then “taper off” and do less mileage to save your endurance for race day. Examples of training schedules according to fitness level are below. Beginning Walkers Weekly: 45-minute walk (2-3 miles), 2-3 times/week Long Training Day: 60-minute (3-4 miles) walk Each Week: add 1-2 miles onto your long training day Advanced Walkers Weekly: 60-minute walk (4-5 miles), 2-3 times/week Long Training Day: 90-minute (6-7 miles) walk Each Week: add 1-1.5 miles onto your long training day Beginning Runners Weekly: 30-45-minute run (2-4 miles), 2-3 times/week Long Training Day: 45-minute (3-4 miles) run Each Week: add 1-2 miles onto your long training day Advanced Runners Weekly: 45-60-minute run (5-7 miles), 2-3 times/week Long Training Day: 60-minute (6-7 miles) run Each Week: add 1-1.5 miles onto your long training day Runner/Walker Combining running and walking is a great way to do half and full marathons.
