Thanks for the detailed info larkim. Much appreciated and I’ll definitely have a look at this method before next race day. |

ES 335 - that's a great marathon time and your mile splits are brilliantly even. I've followed Furman for all my marathons over the years since 2008, as I love being able to mix in cycling with my running. I've had pretty consistent results - including some good 10Ks using the 10K plan. I'm training for Manchester at the beginning of April, using furman, but with an extra 4th easy run + 2 biking days. Do you have a next marathon lined up? Interesting garmin tool Larkim. Are you training for anything major at the moment? |

Thanks JPF I think Furman suits me -3 days fits around life better. I’m sure the split consistency comes from training to a specific pace with each run on the Plan. I also like the cross training - which for me is rowing rather than cycling, although I do have a decent mountain bike that’s seldom used, road biking bores me and scares me in equal measures! I also do a bit of strength work in the gym and boxing once a week, which is probably good cross training as well. I’m aiming for Stratford in April - jumping on Furman 4 weeks in to make it a 12 week plan. I’ll be training in those other 4 weeks just not to the structured plan. |

I'm running Manchester marathon so that's my sole aim at the moment, but I'm actually a pfitzinger and Douglas disciple when it comes to marathon training!
