Summer Marathon Training: Week 8

Page 1

2022 SUMMER MARATHON TRAINING: WEEK 8 (JULY 25 TO 31) Track Workouts: This week we run a similar workout to Week 2 but this time we bump it up to 8-10 x 400m repeats. Each repeat is between 10k-5k pace and the rest is a 400m slow jog between repeats. For specific split chart you can click HERE. Tempo: Advanced runners this week have a continuous 6 mile tempo run. Aim to run even or negative splits, your last mile split should be your fastest. As tempo runs get longer and the temperatures get warmer, take that into account when selecting your pace. Tempo pace chart can be referenced HERE. Saturday Long Run Plan
