As recreational runners turn into marathon runners, their new goal needs to be fitted with additional strength training to build a body that can run the whole 26.2 miles. As we already suggested here with the title, is that any runner considering to run a full marathon should definitely look into the area of supplemental strength training to improve running form and running efficiency. Another benefit of strength training is that the muscles around the joints become stronger preventing  unwanted injuries as weekly mileage increases.

Our strength training page provides two strength training exercises for runners and there are (at the moment) six more strength training drills on a separate page. Follow this link here of the one at the bottom of the strength training page.
