AMR Answers: First Marathon Training Plan; Weightlifting for Runners
About this episode
If you’re going to run 26.2 miles for the first time in 2025, like May, you owe it to yourself to listen to the episode, which includes a detailed primer on training for your first marathon. Any runner will benefit from Coach Dimity’s detailed strength-training suggestions in response to Kelsey’s question. And all runners will love scheming their own solution to Heather’s “dilemma” of getting to run both the Boston and London marathons!
Before the Q&As start rolling at 08:12, the hosts talk rowing and (epic!) erging. Please call 470-BADASS1 (470-223-2771) to record your question.
