Just finished my first week of the marathon training program that Nike Run Club offers. I wanted something structured and easy: I like having someone/thing just tell me what to do and I do it. But I don’t care to track my runs with that app. it’s going well I guess. Working on my zone 2 on my recovery runs while also just kinda ignoring my HR on some other runs.

Anyway, what was ur training experience like? How did u feel, was it easy or hard? Did u use an app? Join a Strava club? No one I talk to irl is into running.

      Fair point. I would say that in terms of general wisdom, the answer is very clear: it’s less than or equal to. Nearly every place you go will say that running a full marathon distance in marathon training is unnecessary at best, and counterproductive at worst.
