2022 SUMMER MARATHON TRAINING: WEEK 12 (AUG 22 TO 28)
Track Workouts: This week we bump up to 1200m intervals at tempo to 5k pace. The rest is 2-3 minute standing rest. You will want to start conservative and gradually get faster as the workout progresses. For specific split chart you can click HERE. Tempo: Advanced runners this week cut back to run 6mi continuously at marathon pace. Aim to run even or negative splits, your last split should be your fastest. As workouts get longer and the temperatures get warmer, take that into account when selecting your pace. Pace chart can be referenced HERE.
