About this episode

This episode focuses on planning for a successful marathon training block and key considerations for race weekend.

Today's episode is all about laying the foundations of a good marathon training block by thinking about and planning some of the things that we might leave too late. Whilst it's too early to worry about very minute details of the race weekend or get those specific marathon workouts in right now, it is worth thinking about some of the big things on marathon weekend and also reflect on any of the things you'd like to change this time around. This is how the master the marathon course starts. It takes you through nutrition, mindset and pacing as well as some of the things outside of running that can help towards your marathon.
