Hi. What is the best journey to prepare for marathon? Are you going to add one if it is not available?

Hi buddy. As a marathon runner, running coach and used all running journeys, I can ensure you (sadly) there is no journey available to cover a proper marathon training. I would like to have it or defining a goal before starting the running journey. The distances in run further, even set to (50km+…

Thanks for clarifying @Latarion !

I completely agree, @Latarion The Run Further journey seems to me to be focused on 10k training, much too short for proper marathon training. For my last marathon, I used the hybrid running journey for all of my speed work and accessory strength training, then added easy, aerobic, runs to get my we…

Thank you guys. I’ve got the same feeling. I’ve just finished the Run Further journey and the max distance there was about 17km which is definitely not enough, so I need to combine it with longer easy runs.

Hi TomG, Totally new to this forum, so correct me if I’m doing something wrong here. I just finished my first training journey and was very satisfied with it. Now I would like to start this run further journey as I would like to go back to my original running distance of 15K. But can you set that…

Hi Koen! Welcome to the forum! You can’t really set up a distance to build towards unfortunately. But 15km is achievable with the run further journey, you should definitely keep going! :muscle:

Hi @koenlowet , from what I’ve heard, the maximum people get in this journey was 10-15km. Do you give proper feedback to the coach after each session? saying the session was too easy?

Hey @papi welcome to the forum!

I think “run further” would be the most appropriate one:

Enjoy!
