Road to Marathon

Sixteen weeks to 26.2 miles. A complete first-marathon plan that builds you up gradually and gets you to the start line healthy.

Four runs and two strength sessions a week, about 6.5 hours at peak. Mileage builds from 20 to 38 miles a week and never goes up more than 10% in a week. Steady weeks and a 3-week taper are built in.

You can start this plan if:

• You’ve finished a half marathon, or run 8 miles or more
• You’ve been running 4 times a week for at least a month
