Training Plan
Listed below is a general
training plan for beginners and improvers; individual training plans,
geared to your ability are available on request from the club captain.
There are also routes for the long runs available at
http://www.realbuzz.com/flmroutes/map.php.
January 2008
Though the weather can be very cold, this is the month to
get your training routine established. Fast or slow, try
and get into a habit and organise those training sessions:
Beginners: 2/3 runs per week (5 - 7m)
plus 1 long run 10 -12 miles. Total = 30 miles
Improvers: 3/4 runs per week (5 - 8m) plus 1 long run 12
- 14 miles. Total = 38 miles
For all runners, try and make one mid-week run at least 7
miles, another run should be a speed or hill training
session. Make sure you have a rest day after the long run
- remember you only increase your stamina and strength
when you rest.
February 2008
This month is the gradual build of stamina, extending
your long run a mile or so at a time.
Beginners: 3/4 runs per week (5 - 7m)
plus 1 long run 12 -14 miles. Total = 34 miles
Improvers: 3/4 runs per week (5 - 9m) plus 1 long run 14
- 17 miles. Total = 43 miles
Try and fit in a 10m or half marathon but remember to run
it steady - it's the distance that is important. A race
just helps you get the feel for the marathon and makes
you go a little faster than you would on your own.
March 2008
The last full month sees the topping up of the stamina
with the biggest long run on the weekend that is 3 weeks
before the Marathon (in 2007 this is March 23rd),
followed by mileage reduction into April.
Beginners: 3/4 runs per week (5 - 8m)
plus 1 long run 14 -18 miles. Total = 40 miles
Improvers: 3/4 runs per week (5 - 10m) plus 1 long run 17
- 20 miles. Total = 48 miles
Remember a run of around 20 miles is the MAXIMUM - on the
day adrenalin and the crowd will get you through. Still
keep the build up gradual and concentrate on solid runs,
hopefully with at least one shorter run being nearer 8 to
10 miles. This helps to train you for long efforts.
April 2008
As the last few weeks approach, it is time
to taper down the training reducing to 60% then 40% then
20% in the last 3 weeks. For the last week's tips, take a
look at the one week to go guide here.
London Marathon Club entries
Each year the club receives a few places (usually 2
or 3) to the London marathon, based on our current affiliation. These
places are put in a raffle which has the following conditions. Note that
the raffle is normally held after the London ballot outcomes are
released.
1. Must be a member (non-social) of the club at the time of close of
entries to the London Marathon, and continue to be a member until the
marathon is run.
2. Must have entered the London marathon and been rejected - the reject
slip is required to enter into the raffle.
3. Must not have won a club London Marathon entry in the previous year's
raffle.
4. Must commit to raise money for the club's chosen charity. A minimum
of £150 per place is expected.
If you are successful in the raffle, you will be given a guaranteed
entry into the London marathon; this will require you to pay the usual
entry fee.
