Prior to
Starting:
To enter
into the intermediate level training program
you need to have
a mileage base
of regular
running of 25 - 30 miles
per week. Preferably 4 to
six days per
week.
►
If you are
not yet running at this level hold off on
starting the training and focus on building your
running base.
Over the course
of the program,
you will be
required to
increase your
weekly mileage
up to 55 miles.
Two 20 mile
training runs
are included in
the schedule.
