Running According To The 80/20 Rule While Training For A Marathon
Question:
Good afternoon!
What do you think about running according to the 80/20 rule?
Can I use this method effectively during training for the second marathon in my life?

Greetings!
Speaking of the 80/20 rule, what you probably mean are proportions of aerobic and anaerobic load in the training process. This is a rule with which I agree beyond all doubt. In some cases (for beginners), I would decrease the portion of the high intensity training even more.
Using this principle and being guided by the common sense and adequate assessment of your current condition, I am sure you will be able to avoid injuries and breakdowns of the adaptation process. Increase of the portion of the high intensity (interval, anaerobic) training increases both the risk of injury and the risks associated with possible under-recovery. This in turn compromises the achievement of the end goal, not to mention an execution of the training process tasks.

Marathon Time Goal Is 3:30:00
Question:
In September I finished my first marathon in 4 hours and 55 minutes.
Is it possible to run a marathon under 3:30 after a year or is a one-year training plan not enough to achieve the goal?

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.
Recommendations on Run For Tall People
Question:
Good afternoon,
My height is about 2 meters. I know about recommendations on power trainings for tall people. Are there recommendations for such people if we say about long-distance running (half-marathon, marathon)?
Warming Up Before the Start
Question:
Good afternoon.
I'd like to know should I do a warm-up before the start of competition and which exercises should be done?
Is it worth training a day before a competition or having a rest day?
