Healthy Heart Program
Looking for advice on preparing for a Marathon?
First, I am planning to run in the Chicago Marathon on October 7. I am 38 and have NEVER run a marathon in my life. I have actually let myself get out of shape…I’m 240 lbs and stand 5′11″. I believe I need to lose at least 60 pounds in order to be at a healthy running weight.
My goals are both fitness and awareness as I am planning on doing this with my Church to bring awareness to the AIDS issues in Africa. We are teaming up with World Vision.
Anyway, as I go to get started I have seen loads of material that shows an 18-24 week training program to run a marathon…however many of these assume that you can run at 5 mph to start.
I can go 5 mph for about a 1/2 mile and then I hit a wall…I have been training on a treadmill in my local gym using the 5K as my usual work out. I have walked it at 3.5MPH at a 4% incline and my heart rate stayed at 129-132 fro the duration of the work out…when I run at 4.0MPH or faster, my hear rate jumps to 170 give or take 5.
Nikerunning.com is THE BEST site for marathon training! It’s all free and you can get a complete marathon training schedule, with fun charts and graphs. It’s totally interactive and you enter your progress each day. I trained for my first marathon on it last year and i loved it!
