Beginners Marathon Build Up ScheduleSince you’re reading this chapter I assume you are a new or inexperienced runner that needs to build up a base of fitness before beginning your actual marathon training. The beginners marathon program begins with long run base of 2 miles and the recreational runners program requires a long run base of 3 miles. This build up schedule will take you from zero to 3 miles.You may or may not need to complete this entire build up schedule. Only a new runner will need to start with week 1 of this schedule. Week one begins with the assumption that you have not run before. If you have some running experience you can begin this program at your current level.All of the training runs in this program are easy runs or walk/run combinations. Your pace is not important during these build up training runs. Just be sure to keep your pace relatively easy and conversational in nature. The rule of thumb for these conversational runs are that you should be able to speak clearly but not sing. If you can’t carry on a conversation you’re running too fast. If you can sing and carry a tune you’re running too slowly.
Way to go! You’ve now graduated from the beginners build up program and are ready to begin your marathon training.
