Last year I supported my friend by running 10km in the Melbourne Marathon Festival. This year I’d like to increase my distance by running the half marathon and so I was looking for guide to help me along this process. 3Pillar – Marathon Guide is a comprehensive work that provides an incremental approach to achieving one’s goals.
The guide has well-structured training plans, building physical strength but also gives confidence, making the seemingly daunting task of completing a marathon feel achievable. In addition, there is an importance of overall well-being through strength training exercises, cross-training recommendations, and valuable tips on nutrition and hydration that provide a balanced approach to marathon preparation.
This is very user-friendly and is easy to follow, with clear instructions that combine the existing program in the gym with marathon specific tasks. A novice runner like me, feels ready to pound the pavement and tackle the half marathon. “Trust the process”, and now it’s time to put the theory into action!
