About this episode

Bill Stahl discusses the optimal length for long runs in marathon training and related considerations.

Send us Fan Mail One of the most common questions we coaches of long-distance runners get is, “How long should my long run be?” Related to that is, “If I’m training for a marathon, how many times should I do 26-mile training runs?” I dive into these, training camps, and other related considerations in this Power Play episode that I hope helps you in your training for your next marathons and ultramarathons.
