Marathon Program

Week 3 | Marathon Day 15

Core Work & Restoration Training

Time: 45 minutes.

Expect to learn a few new movements this next month with increasingly challenging volume and workout sets. Remember, you can always go back to the strength days in the 30 Day Challenge if you need a refresher or if you’re not yet ready for the new stuff!

Today’s focus will be on continually developing your running posture and ability to hold it for longer periods of time with focused core strength and mobility work afterwards! Remember today’s another opportunity to practice and establish “good reps” with your breathing mechanics, so work on integrating your breathing with ALL movement.
