I have prepared a training programme based on 3 runs a week with an option for a 4th run.
This programme is aimed at busy folk, who work, maybe have children to look after and just do not have the time to run 4-6 times a week. Ideal for first timers, or if your first marathon was a painful experience then this could be for you.
This is the same programme I used to coach a group of girls doing their first marathon at Dublin. They all ran well, nobody hit the 'wall' and their finishing times were from 3.44 to 5.27.
Email me if you'd like a copy of the programme

Its like when I used to work at a Karting centre, clipping tyre walls showed you were really pushing your limits.
Shades, think you'll have a lot of takers for that plan. See if you can get it on the FP!!!!
Yes please - You should have a mail from me!
ben - Don't think so! I've only ever "hit the wall" in training, but the result is a catastrophic loss of pace which could wreck any race.
Not that I'm not up to a good argument though.
200m - yes, she did 3.44.56 which gives her a GFA place if she wants it in 2007
The first time I prepared a training plan for a marathon it just scared them so the next time I tried to make it look as 'easy' as possible.
nice one!
Sian - even my email to you with no attachment has been rejected, can you email me another email address I can try?
Sent you an email asking for a copy of your programme.
Best wishes.
I'm at work at the moment but our accounts software is having an upgrade so am utilising the time by sneaking on the forum
i suggest you email one of the others on this thread and ask them to forward you a copy.
Thanks bah26 for the offer - will email you.
You have mail, Shades.
