Objective This training plan describes the preparation for a Full Marathon (42.195km) aiming at finishing times from 3h:30min to 6h:30min. The dates in the plan are aligned to the Malaysian Women Marathon taking place March 06, 2016. The plan can be followed by the runner herself without supervision by a running coach. To allow and ease self-guidance the workouts chosen avoid too much complexity without compromising the target. Assumptions Should you deviate from the assumptions below, adaptation of the plan to your individual needs may be required. Should you require support for this, do seek assistance from MWM mentor/support, experienced runner or running coach. 1) You are physically fit enough for this training program and have a respective clearance from your physician if you have any doubt or health condition 2) You have been running 40km or more a week consistently over at least six months 3) You are committed to invest 1 to 2 hours a day on 4 to 5 days a week for running training, whereas the Sunday long run may require more time depending on to be covered 4) You have all the apparel and gears (running watch, running glasses, visor/cap, etc.) required for running 5) You know about the hydration and nutrition requirements in the climate and area you are training and racing Recommendation Even though this plan can be followed without external direction it is still recommended to seek the advice of MWM mentors/support or running coach to discuss progress. Depending on progress, the objective or training (e.g. paces) may have to be adjusted based on actual results. In this context it is important to understand that no size fits it all when it comes to running training plans. The suggested plan is rather intense with normally two quality, meaning physical demanding, sessions on Tuesday and Thursday. Thus, always listen to your body. It is completely OK and mandatory to skip a session or replace it with an easier one, should you feel too fatigued and require longer recovery. Should a workout be missed, do not increase the intensity or duration of the next workout, as this may exert your body too much, weaken it and increase the risk of injury or exhaustion. Complement this running training with strength training improving overall strength. Strength training contributes positively to running performance and injury prevention. Workouts Description Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) For the suggested training paces below you require a GPS running watch or a stop watch on a track or treadmill belt, to monitor pace and run. If none 3 Full Marathon Training Plan Karsten v1.0
of this or similar means are available it is suggested to run based on RPE. It is used to describe the level of perceived intensity of the workout. It takes a bit of practise to run based on RPE but you may find it useful. The values of the initial Borg s Scale can be multiplied by 10 to get an indication of the heart rate related to the respective exertion. For example a heart rate from 120 to 150 is considered a moderate workout, indicated with green background in the figure below. For the description of the workouts in this training plan, the Modified Borg scale (0 10) is used. Figure 2 Rating of Perceived Exertion Original Borg s Scale vs. Modified Borg Scale (Source: http://www.cmsfitnesscourses.co.uk/blog/128/using-the-rpe-scale) Warm Up (WU) WU is an essential phase of every workout and has to be done at the beginning of every session/race. The objective is to reduce injury risk and allow increased performance during the actual session. There are three components of a proper WU: 1) Warm Up Run Run for 2 to 3 km at Easy pace 2) Stretching and Muscle Activation Do following Dynamic Stretching (DS), Active Isolated Stretching (AIS) holding the stretch for 3 seconds and Muscle Activation (MA) exercises: Exercise Focus Area High Knees DS Quadriceps, Hip Flexor Butt Kicks DS Hamstrings Leg Lifts / Tick-Tock DS Ab- and Adductors Toy Soldier DS Quadriceps, Hip Flexor, Hamstring Hacky Sack DS Adductors, Quadriceps (medial) 4 Full Marathon Training Plan Karsten v1.0
Heel Raises / Heel Stand DS Hamstring Donkey Kicks DS Glutes Tight Rotation MA Core, Oblique Reverse Flies MA Shoulder, Posterior Deltoid, Rotator Cuffs Arm Pull Backs DS Triceps, Shoulder, Chest Walking Lunges AIS Hip Flexor Lateral Lunge AIS Adductors Table 1 - Warm Up Exercises 3) Strides Do three 50m to 100m quick runs at your goal workout or race pace. The objective is to get your heart rate up in preparation of the subsequent session REMARK: For long and/or slow runs you may skip strides and reduce the warm up run but always do the stretching and muscle activation exercises. Just be very cautious when doing those exercises without or little warm up run. Cool Down (CD) CD is an essential phase of every workout. There are two components of a proper CD. 1) Cool Down Run Run for 2 to 3 km at Easy / Recovery pace 2) Static Stretching Do following Static Stretching (SS) holding the stretch for 30 seconds, do 3 sets each: Exercise Focus Area Pike Stretch (or similar) SS Calves Quadriceps Stretch SS Quadriceps Hamstring Stretch SS Hamstring Lateral Lunge SS Adductors Mountain Climber SS Hip Flexor Dynamic Pigeon SS Glutes Table 2 Cool Down Exercises Easy Runs The Easy Run builds your endurance and represents the highest ratio of your workouts throughout your week and race preparation. The RPE should be somewhere between 4 and 6, with the run lasting anywhere between 15 to 90 minutes. As with all other workouts it is essential for the overall success of the training program to maintain the level of exertion or pace throughout the entire run. Don t run faster just because you can, as this may impact the quality of your next hard session. If you feel tired or can t maintain the minimum pace, consider aborting the run, as this is an indication you are not rested enough to make the run count. A nice option for the Easy Run is to do it on trail. Depending on the terrain your pace will be slower, thus use RPE to choose the right intensity. 5 Full Marathon Training Plan Karsten v1.0
Long Runs The Long Run aka LSD (Long Slow Distance) is normally done once a week. Most leisure and amateur runners prefer the weekend for this run. It builds your endurance for long races. The RPE should be somewhere between 4 and 6, with the run lasting anywhere from 90 minutes to many hours. The effort will feel harder as the run progresses The Long Run is the ideal opportunity to get to know your body better over the stretch of many km. Use this run testing the clothes, shoes and gadgets you plan to run the actual race with to avoid unpleasant surprises on race day. Fuel and hydration strategies have to be tested during such runs as well. Important rule: Don t try anything new on race day. Fast Finish Long Run Identical to the Long Run but pace over the last km is increased. This conditions the body to maintain targeted race pace with increasingly fatigue muscles. Hill Repetitions Hill Reps Fine change from the usual runs you do. The objective of this workout is to build strength and improve running form. For this workout identify hills or slopes with the required length. The inclination of the hill should not be too steep, main objective is to complete the session with good running form and level of intensity. Important for this workout: Throughout the uphill run, keep your eyes looking at the top of hill ahead of you Shorten your stride Raise your knees higher than normally Swing your arms stronger than normally supporting your uphill movement. Remember to bend your arms at elbow level by 90, swinging them perpendicular to your trunk, don t cross them in front of your body beyond the centre of your body Use the way back to the bottom of the hill to recover, jog slowly or walk if you have to Tempo Run Stamina workout, you are running around your Acidosis Threshold (AT aka Lactate Threshold LT). The RPE should be somewhere between 6 and 8, with the run lasting not longer than 40 minutes. Don t run faster than your target pace, even if you feel you could. This would push you into your anaerobic zone leading to acidosis of the muscles impacting needed recovery and subsequent workouts. Tempo / Cruise Intervals Stamina workout similar to Tempo Runs, only the workout is divided into intervals. This makes the Tempo / Cruise Interval run both physically and psychologically easier and increases the that can be run at respective pace in a single workout. The rest period for Tempo Intervals is normally 1 minute, to avoid too much rest that void the training effect. 6 Full Marathon Training Plan Karsten v1.0
Don t run faster than your target pace, even if you feel you could. This would push you into your anaerobic zone leading to acidosis of the muscles impacting needed recovery and subsequent workouts. Fartlek Swedish coach Gösta Holmér developed this workout in 1937 to boost the Swedish cross country team performance, having lost in previous years to the Finns (Source: Wikipedia). It s Swedish and can be translated into speed-play (Fart-Lek). There are many variations of this workout, such as time run, time of the break or pace run. In this plan only structured Fartlek is foreseen, meaning the time of the fast run and rest is fixed. This workout improves your speed, running posture and cadence. Run the fast segments at an RPE between 8 and 9 with focus of having sufficient strength to run the last interval at a similar pace as the first interval. Speed Intervals The Speed Interval pushes you into your anaerobic zone, meaning you can t maintain the run pace for much longer than around 6 minutes. The objective is to improve the maximum oxygen your body can consume, which is called VO2max. Related improvements are the improvement of your default pace as well as stamina, as the Acidosis Threshold (AT) and VO2max are related. Run the speed intervals at an RPE effort of 8 to 9. The rest period is normally 3 minutes, try to jog slowly during the rest period and stand only if you must. Don t go faster even if you feel you could, first of all when it is the beginning of the session. Should you slow down too much as the session progresses and you can t maintain the intensity, abort the session as it would miss its objective. Recovery Recovery runs are to be taken very serious. They normally follow on the day after very tough quality sessions to stimulate blood circulation and the movement apparatus at very low intensity (RPE between 2 to 3). Limit recovery runs to 40 minutes. 7 Full Marathon Training Plan Karsten v1.0
