Starting the schedule

"Hallo - I just joined your training program and would like to run the Boston Marathon using your schedule.

Considering that I will be running the Berlin race this coming weekend (and would like to qualify with 3:20) when should I start training for the April US race?"

Answer: Hi Patrick, what I would suggest is to 1) after this marathon, use the recovery weeks you see at the end of each schedule to get the best possible recovert 2)thereafter, play around with the workouts (test a few of them, pick according to preferance) until you are 121 days away from your race 3) at that time start with the introduction weeks that leads you into the 100 day plan. That should make you all set !

Kind regards,
Marius
