Marathon Training Injury

As you have probably learnt it is vital to make sure you have the best marathon training shoes to remain injury free and to perform at your best.

To remain injury free over time you will also need to replace your marathon training shoes at regular intervals as the protective cushioning and support will deteriorate over time.

The best way to do this is to keep a log of how many miles you have covered in your new trainers. The aim is to replace your trainers approximately every 300-500 miles to make sure the cushioning and support does not deteriorate too much and so that
you remain injury free.

If you have bought a new pair of trainers you should realize that it will take around 50 miles for you to break in your trainers. During this time you should avoid doing longer sessions in order to avoid the painful effects of blistering. It is better to do your longer sessions in your ordinary trainers and to break in your new trainers on your shorter sessions for the first 50 miles.

Marathon Bible

"I learned that the only way you are going to get anywhere in life is to work hard at it. Whether you're a musician, a writer, an athlete or a businessman, there is no getting around it. If you do, you'll win--if you don't, you won't." -- Bruce Jenner, Olympic Gold Medalist, Decathlon

Training for a marathon is hard work. There will be no success without getting the miles into your legs. The real difference is between following a system and following a system that works.
