Introducing “Your Road to 26.2 – Part 1,” an exciting Peloton marathon training plan. It’s the initial step in a 3-phase program meticulously crafted to guide you towards marathon success.

In this first phase, spanning 6 weeks, we’re focused on gradually increasing your mileage. On those long run days (Day 7), there won’t be a specific run or class tailored to accompany your journey. Instead, we recommend you embark on a warmup run beforehand to prepare yourself for the upcoming long run challenge.

As for the most extended run you’ll tackle during Part 1, it will be a 10-mile adventure. Lace up your shoes and get ready to conquer those miles!

Here are the 2nd and 3rd parts:

Update Alert! In July 2022, Peloton gave this program a fresh makeover. They switched out the strength for runner’s classes across all the weeks. Moreover, they mixed things up on the 6th day, replacing the 20-minute run with classes led by coaches who weren’t part of the original launch team.

So, the program outlined below will feature the shiny new version.

Program Overview

Program Description

Let me share Peloton’s official description of “Road to Your 26.2 Part 1” with you:

“Get ready to kickstart your journey with race day as your ultimate goal. Week 1 starts with a well-deserved rest on Day 1 and reserves Day 7 for your long run adventure. In the following 6 weeks, you’ll dive into some gentle speed workouts and strength training while steadily ramping up your mileage.”

It’s a path toward marathon greatness with a strategic approach!

Program Badges

Of course, Peloton never forgets the badges! As you embark on this journey, there are shiny rewards waiting for you. Finish 24 classes, and you’ll proudly wear the Bronze badge. Go a little further with 34 classes, and you’ll earn the Silver one. For the true champions who conquer 44 out of the 48 classes, there’s the prestigious Gold badge, a testament to your dedication and determination.
