It requires more substantial training and a desire to get fast across more event distances than just 26.2 miles. Listen to coach Jason Fitzgerald discuss marathon training for those hoping to break fours in the marathon - the mileage, workout, and long run considerations. Plus, how to know when you’re ready for that sub four marathon attempt!
