4:00-4:30 12-Week Marathon Plan
This plan starts at 26 miles/week and builds up to 40/week before your taper into the marathon.

Athletes should be able to run 25-30 miles/week before starting this program. As athletes progress through the training plan, they should utilize the marathon specific workouts to gain a realistic expectation of race day. If you're able to perform all specific workouts below 9:09/mile pace, then perhaps a sub 4 marathon is in your future. If you're struggling to hold 10:17/mile pace, then perhaps above 4:30 is more realistic. Feel free to adjust the specific days as needed, while leaving the aerobic endurance days in place!
