Marathon Training Schedule
I’ve been looking over my schedule for the next four months, and I thought I’d share it with the peanut gallery. Basically, my weekday runs are pretty static:
| Monday | 10 miles, pace or progressive |
|---|---|
| Tuesday | 6-7 miles, form/strength Gazelle workout |
| Wednesday | 4-5 miles, recovery run |
| Thursday | 6-7 miles, speed Gazelle workout |
| Friday | Gym workout |
That leaves the weekend. Sunday is, quite emphatically, a rest day, and Saturday is reserved for our long runs:
| July 2 | 16 | |
|---|---|---|
| July 9 | 12 | in Dallas |
| July 16 | 18 | hills |
| July 23 | 14 | easy |
| July 30 | 20 | |
| August 6 | 15 | hills |
| August 13 | 20 | |
| August 20 | 12 | hills |
| August 27 | 22 | |
| September 3 | 12 | hills |
| September 10 | 22 | |
| September 17 | 12 | easy |
| September 24 | 18 | hills |
| October 1 | 10 | 10K race |
| October 8 | 20 | |
| October 15 | 14 | |
| October 22 | 10 | 10 mile race - at pace |
| October 29 | 10 | |
| November 5 | 26 |
Looks like a fun summer!

10 miles at pace EVERY Monday?! Is this by chance the intermediate PSYCHO marathon plan? You amaze me Richard. I can’t even comment on the hills and long runs. After this you are either going to be the image of the lighning racer, or you are just going to spontanously combust right there on the course. :D

Well… we’re only doing seven miles on Mondays until July. Is that any better?
