Marathon Program
Week 8 | Marathon Day 52
Single Arm & Leg Strength Training
Time: ~45 minutes.
Yes single leg burpees, shoulder touch pushups, and broad jumps are a thing. You’ll not only get to know them real well this next month but you’ll see quickly just how well they translate to faster, stronger, more injury free running. If anything feels too advanced, remember you can always brush up on your strength with the movements we did in Building Distance 1.
