Finish Time Training Plans Aren't Good


Listen Later

I got a message on Instagram from a guy with a goal of running under 1:50 for the half. He asked if he should adjust his 1:45hr half marathon training plan or leave it the same.

I immediately got annoyed at these silly finish-time training plans because they do more harm than good. There’s often no ability to personalise the plan to your thresholds and intensity zones.

I believe your physiology should predict your finish time rather than letting a finish time dictate your physiology.
