Believe me, even if you're an experienced 5 or 10k runner, running a full marathon is a whole different can of worms. You really do need an experienced coach and training plan to guide you and help you succeed. All the motivation in the world is not going to help much if you don't know what to do. Running harder and longer is NOT always the best thing to do. There's a science to just about anything and running a marathon is no different. The best thing to do, as with anything else in life, find someone who has already succeeded in what you are trying to do and follow their example. Click Here!
Ever since I ran my first marathon my goal has been to eventually qualify for Boston! I know that's a pretty tough task and at first it didn't really seem possible but after 4 marathons I am now only 20 minutes away from my goal time! Twenty minutes may not seem like a lot over 26 miles but I'm sure they will be the hardest 20 minutes to knock off so far. I've been able to improve my marathon times with each run largely in part to hard work and some talent but in order to achieve better results and actually make that Boston dream a reality I know I will need a more focused and detailed training plan. So far I've gotten by on free and public training plans available on the web and just trying to modify as needed to fit my style and fitness level.
But, this fall I will once again make my attempt at a Boston Qualifier and I am already researching for the best training plans out there. I want to push myself and follow a proven plan of attack that will help me cross that finish line with my ticket punched to Boston!
So...I came across this site Click Here!
With the Olympics just a couple of months away I gotta say, I'm a little inspired to learn from and see what a 2-time Olympian has to offer for helping me run my best ever marathon. The cool thing is that this isn't just for elite level runners. Absolutely anyone, from the beginner to the experienced can use and implement this proven method to train for their best ever marathon. He calls it THE 100 DAY MARATHON PLAN.
I love the fact that not only is he a proven and successful runner himself at the highest level but he's also a doctor! He provides some of the best advice from both angles, professional athlete and medical expertise.
Anyways...I really loved this plan and thought I should share it with you to help you achieve the same results I'm looking for. You don't have to be shooting for Boston like I am to benefit from a great training plan.
Find your plan to success and commit to crossing that finish line no matter what!
RUN TO SUCCESS!!
