The marathon training journey can be both mentally and physically challenging. We’ve designed a 16-week training program that combines running and riding to help condition your body through endurance cross-training and strengthen your mind through our supportive community, personal coaching, and high-energy playlists.
Intermediate Runners
We suggest using SoulCycle as cross-training and active recovery the day after your long run and an optional second day of cross training as desired. You will also want to include pace specific workouts including tempo runs, interval work, fartleks (speed intervals), hill work, and marathon effort miles.
As you progress through this journey, prioritize listening to your body. Getting adequate sleep and focusing on recovery by fueling, hydrating, stretching, and foam rolling is crucial. To reduce risk of injury, incorporate strength workouts once every two weeks to get stronger on and off the road.
See you on the road and in the saddle.
