A RUNNER RECENTLY POSTED A QUESTION to my Facebook page about the apparent 20-mile limit for long runs in my marathon training programs. âWhy the limit?â the runner asked. She recently had completed one of my novice half marathon programs with 10 its peak long run mileage. But for intermediate and advanced half marathoners, the last long run peaks between 12 and 16 miles. Following this logic, should not some of my marathon programs peak anywhere from 24 to 32 miles? âItâs such a stretch between 20 and 26.2 miles,â worried the runner.
