Hey! How’s it goin?

In this episode I’m talking about how to set up your training plan to maximize your workouts so you’re ready for runDisney Marathon if you have knee problems.

I recommend creating a training schedule that includes

3-4 running days with long runs, speed workouts, pace workouts, hills, etc

1-2 cross training days to build cardiovascular endurance

2-3 strength training days to build strength and power

2 complete rest days
