TRAINING
WORDS: CHRISTINA MACDONALD
If you dream of running a marathon, but you”re unsure whether you could commit to the volume of training (or you”re worried your body won”t hold up well), there”s good news. You don”t have to run four or five times a week to get marathon fit. Some experts even advise against running more than three times a week if you want to avoid injury. So, if you”re prone to niggles that restrict how often you can run, don”t be despondent. You can still run a marathon on one or two runs per week, providing you”re reasonably fit and not new to running.
