Marathon Program
Week 2 | Marathon Day 10
Strength & Cross Training
Time: 45 minutes.
This next month’s strength sessions will give you some new looks and of course some new challenges. Building on the foundational strength in the 30 Day Challenge, we work on more single leg and single arm exercises that not only build more stable hips and shoulders, but teach you why and how this stability translates to your running.
If anything feels too advanced, remember you can always brush up on your strength with the more basic (but still challenging) stuff from the 30 DC!
