Training Plan: Patagonia International Marathon
Preparing for a marathon requires 16–20 weeks of structured training. This plan is specifically designed for the Patagonia International Marathon's mountainous course in Torres del Paine.
Training Considerations for This Race
Hill Training Required
With 1,240m of elevation gain, incorporate hill repeats 1-2x per week. Focus on both uphill power and controlled downhill running.
Rain Likely
There's a 55% chance of rain on race day. Train in wet conditions. Use body glide to prevent chafing and consider a light hat with brim.
Racing in Torres del Paine
Arrive at least 2 days early to adjust. Torres del Paine is in the south america timezone — factor in jet lag if traveling far.
