Welcome to Week 7


You’ve shown incredible dedication and progress. The finish line is almost here, and this week, we’ll focus on maintaining your peak condition.


Here’s what you can expect in Week 7:

  1. Maintaining Mileage with a Slight Taper: Keeping your endurance strong with consistent runs. We start reducing mileage somewhat to keep your body strong for race day. 

  2. Strength: Continued focus on exercises to support your running.

  3. Daily Foot Massage: Use your arch massager for 3 minutes a day to aid recovery and reduce foot fatigue.

Each day we will give you task(s) to complete. On days where "Strength" is listed, you will perform the exercise program below.


Remember to massage every day using your Arch Massager and plan ahead so you are set up for success.


Remember, it’s important to listen to your body. If you need extra rest or modifications, don’t hesitate to adjust the plan to suit your needs. Our goal is to build your endurance and strength gradually, setting you up for success in the weeks to come.
