Sundays is obviously the key, so apart from a bit of speed work Tuesday we keep the rest of the week super light. If you can hit marathon pace on Sunday that would be great. Also wearing the kit, especially the shoes you plan to wear at Boston is a very smart move. Nailing the fuelling too is great practice for the marathon. Any problems let me know but a big week ahead. You got this Kevin.

Rather than just head out and do 60 mins easy, this goes through the gears a little and will hopefully help you improve running economy as the speed picks up a little. It’s still a light session but makes the easy runs more interesting. Best done on the flat to hit consistent paces.

A great preparation for a marathon. Use it as a session and keep the first mile or so as a WU, before settling into your target marathon pace. Definitely don’t go quicker that that. It’s a great chance to wear race day kit, especially the shoes as well as practicing your fuelling.
