Ways To Train
We've got you covered when it comes to training options, so there is no excuse not to be at your best when race day arrives!
Rolling solo - If you prefer to quietly go about your training on your own, download a FREE training plan and start ticking your sessions off every week. Or, you could convince your mates to enter and follow the plan together!
Full Support - GetRunning has been getting runners ready for the Barfoot & Thompson Auckland Marathon for 15 years now. With Run Club training options every morning of the week, including a Saturday long run, or having one of their very experienced coaches take you right up to the event with personalised coaching, you can even mix them up!
