How to combine HM with a full marathon in the app?
Hi Runna,
Next year, I’ll be racing the Barcelona Half Marathon on February 15 and the Copenhagen Marathon on May 10.
I’m a bit unsure about starting marathon training with a February race. It feels a little late to properly kick off a full marathon build-up. But I also can't mark Barcelona as my A race and Copenhagen as my B race.
The only solution I see is to set the Copenhagen Marathon as my A race and start the marathon training now. I’ll treat Barcelona as a B race but mark race strategy as all out on race day.
Will the training from now on be more half-marathon specific, or will it start leaning into marathon-focused blocks? I’m thinking of shifting my long runs from 16 km (half marathon) to 20–25 km, depending on how life unfolds with two kids at home.
Barcelona is my ultimately goal of the season and would be a shame to have to slow training because it focus on my marathon.
