  • How about one of the Hal Higdon HM plans? I used HH for my first marathon and thought it worked well. I like the fact he doesn't get too prescriptive regarding pace for every run but there's enough quality in there and he guides you through a sensible mileage build-up over 12 weeks. I also like the relatively heavy-training weekends, with race pace runs on a Saturday followed by the Sunday long run, book-ended by cross-training or rest Monday/Friday, which I think is good for getting you used to running your long runs on tired legs.

    Caveat to any training plan is that it should be doable compared to what you're used to, i.e. don't jump from 2/3 days of running to 5 days, and/or big increase in either volume or quality.
