Run Smart .... Not Hard
Each person is unique. Every person brings different levels of experience, fitness and time they are able to commit to working out. In addition, the types of workouts will vary depending on whether one is a Novice, Intermediate, advance or Elite runner. A one size fits all that many sites offer for their marathon training systems won’t work for most people.
