Marathon Strength Prep
A 16-week strength block that complements marathon training. Builds the hip stabiliser capacity, posterior-chain endurance, single-leg load tolerance, calf and Achilles resilience, and trunk anti-extension that support injury resilience and trunk/hip control as running fatigue compounds. Designed to fit alongside a running plan, not replace it — two short strength sessions per week, kept at moderate intensity so running stays the priority.
