What our members say

"I used to be a middle distance track athlete in high school who hated anything more than 1,500m. The past five years I tried to get back in the running game but got injured every attempt. Streek taught me how to train properly. Quite pleased with my first long distance race at the SMH half marathon. Result 1:45min. Thanks team. "
TJ Braithwaite
"What a fantastic training resource. I have been working on my cadence and the difference is substantial.I have never had metrics on garmin that look so good.Today was the best, 20 minutes 172 cadence, 6min/k at 134 bpm (really good for me). "
Andrew Milne
"You have really helped me over the past year. Your training plans to fit in with my crazy busy life are paying off and have gained a few pb’s since I started training with you. My first 50km this weekend .. in 6hrs 17mins! Can’t believe it, I’m still in shock. I have you to thank."

FAQs

A: This program is suitable for someone who has been training consistently for 6 – 12 months, and is able to comfortably run 13km regularly. If you have not yet run 13km, you should consider training for a half marathon rather than a full marathon. 16 weeks may not be enough time to prepare your body for the marathon distance without risking injury.
A: While the course is generally flat, there are some undulating sections, particularly in the second half. Additionally, warm weather and humidity can make pacing and hydration key factors in your performance.
A: Yes, most sections of the course are public roads and parks that you can train on. Running over the Harbour Bridge is possible on the pedestrian path outside of race day, and you can run along almost all key sections of the course to familiarise yourself with the terrain.

A: The Sydney Marathon event includes:

  • Sydney Mini Marathon 4.2km
  • Sydney Marathon (42.2km)
  • Sydney Marathon 10km
A: Recovery starts as soon as you cross the finish line! Be sure to hydrate, eat a balanced meal with protein and carbohydrates, and take time to stretch and rest. A light recovery jog or walk the following day can help reduce stiffness.
