This weekly training schedule

We’ve been asked to elaborate on a full week’s training by those aiming for the big day on 23rd July 2016. Here is Jon’s advice on where you should “be” at this stage of your weekly training 6 weeks out.

Pyramid training should only be done 1 or 2 days a week. There should also be longer runs done on another 2 or 3 days a week and there should be rest or cross training days in between.

Pyramid out and back

This week’s weekly training programme.

So your training programme 6 weeks out from the DAY should really be simply as below:

Full Marathon (42km)

  • Monday =  Rest or cross train
  • Tuesday =  5k pyramid
  • Wednesday =  10k
  • Thursaday =  5k pyramid
  • Friday =  Rest or cross train
  • Saturday =  8k
  • Sunday =  12- 16k

Half Marathon (21km)

  • Monday =  Rest or cross train
  • Tuesday =  5k pyramid
  • Wednesday =  5k
  • Thursaday =  5k pyramid
  • Friday =  Rest or cross train
  • Saturday =  5k
  • Sunday =  8k
