=============================================================
IMPORTANT: This app will train you to complete a full 26.2 (42k) distance using a RUN/WALK ratio
=============================================================

This proven 20 week plan is designed for true beginner/novice runners who want to train for a marathon, but have very little running experience. This run/walk program is perfect for newcomers, as the walk breaks help mentally break up the race into segments, so you can focus on one section at a time. These breaks help make the marathon less grueling, as well as reduces the overall impact and risk of injury.

But don’t think that just because walking is involved that your time will be slower, or that you're accomplishing less. Many veteran runners have posted personal best times after switching to this run walk method! By using a ratio of running and walking, you can manage your fatigue which gives you the muscle resource and mental confidence to handle the later parts of the race.

Slowly build strength and stamina and the blend of walking and running together reduces the overall impact and risk of injury. By the end of the program, you will be READY for your 26.2 (42k) race!

Turn on our award winning music and just press start! Our audio coach will guide you through your run! It's that easy!

This is useless!! I want a training program for an entire marathon! Not one that jumps from run/walk intervals for 6 miles, to run/walk intervals for 26 miles, in one week! This is the exact same app as the also useless half marathon, except extended out for 20 weeks. The 10k app actually has good progression, I was expecting more out of this one.

This a great program that has helped me achieve my running goals. I like how there is an option to listen to music and how you can easily transfer the program to another one, such as from half to full marathon. I would totally recommend this program.

I kept having to scroll over to get to my week so I looked in the FAQ and saw I should try deleting and redownloading, and that it wouldn't forget that I had paid (back when you just had to pay for the app and not the subscription). Well, it did forget. I tried reaching out and still haven't heard back. Since they had to help me get in when I got a new phone, I can't help but wonder if they are dodging me on purpose... I love using the app but this is a real bummer.
