2 Trainings a Day: Should I Slow Down?
Question:
Good afternoon, Oleg.
My name is Eldar, I'm in Turkey now.
I started running a month and a half ago and I'm good at it: I run 10 km in 37 minutes.
I've registered for the Istanbul marathon for 10 km.
I run 10 km 2 times a day, in morning and evening. Should I limit the frequency and long of training before the soon start of the marathon?

Good afternoon, Eldar.
Sorry for my late reply because the Istanbul marathon has passed.
Usually, it is recommended to decrease the load a week before a start. Starting Wednesday I would recommend to do one training a day. It will allow you to be more fresh before the start of a marathon. And you can count on higher result than if you continue to train as you trained before.

Two Weeks without Training: Heart Rate +10
Question:
A month ago I usually ran 10-15 km during trainings at average pace (5:10) with average heart rate (145 bpm).
Then I had two weeks break.
I returned to trainings and now I can maintain previous average pace with heart rate of 154 bpm.
How could it be that I lost my fitness shape or running technique so fast? I can't understand my body.
First Marathon
Question:
Oleg Sergeevich, good afternoon.
I run half-marathons regularly, my personal record is 1:52:00.
I've finished running season and plan to return to running trainings in spring (in late March or in the beginning of April). I have several questions:
- What date should I choose for my first marathon's start considering that I plan to return to running trainings in March and let's assume that I'll start to train for a marathon since 1st April? I would like to prepare good, it doesn't mean quickly because my main goal is to run a marathon without injuries.
- Could you give me some recommendations on training plan: frequency of trainings per week, weekly running volume? How will the weekly running mileage change every month?
- What's number of speed trainings a week? How many long runs should I do?
Thank you.
