The Marathon Magic Handbook - Expert Strategies & Secrets for Success

The Purpose of this Guide: Navigating the Marathon Maze 

My goal for creating this marathon guide is simple: I'm SUPER committed to helping you be a better marathon runner! 

Having successfully completed more than 45 marathons myself in over 20 years of training, I've made almost all the mistakes possible when it comes to marathons! 

But I've made the mistakes so you don't have to!
Throughout my years of training and racing, I've also learned how to run a marathon 

successfully. Joyfully, even!
Heck, I've even run an average of 2.5 marathons a day, clocking up 1,000 

kms when I ran from Brisbane to Sydney in just 11 days 7 hours! 

Beyond my recent 2:54 PB in the Melbourne Marathon (2022), and all of my personal running training experience, I've also coached over 500 runners to complete their first, or greatly improve their second, fifth or tenth marathon- and then some! 

Within the pages of this expert guide, I'm not just sharing how to train for a marathon. 

Because YES, the training part is obviously key- but it's honestly just the beginning. 

In this Marathon Magic Handbook, we'll also dive into essential categories of nutrition, hydration, recovery, mindset, and strength training for running! 

Training for a marathon (and beyond!) is so much more than a bunch of things to tick off your list. You can transform your training into a journey that unveils not just race day revelations but also incredible insights into your own character along the way. 

Long-distance running is like a mirror, reflecting truths about yourself-some embraced, some challenging. ALL of it will serve you to be a more confident, more well-prepared marathoner...a more successful marathoner. 

This serves to equip you with the knowledge and tools to navigate the marathon maze, ensuring a holistic and enriching experience that extends well beyond the finish line! 

Happy reading and happy running Champion!
