It emphasizes staying consistent before the final 12–13 weeks, keeping easy runs truly easy while running hard sessions at prescribed effort. The plan includes options for strength and cross training, plus walking practice during long runs for race-day confidence. Guided pace targets cover recovery, easy, long run, hill repeats, 1-minute repeats, and a time trial, followed by a final taper approach that favors arriving fresh rather than overtrained.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/healthcare/","Healthcare",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/mac-mac-ultra-46km-13-week-program-training-paces-and-weekly-schedule/405400/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/mac-mac-ultra-46km-13-week-program-training-paces-and-weekly-schedule/405400.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"Marglet","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-29","2026-09-28",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":55},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",10,{"@type":57,"mainEntity":58},"FAQPage",[59,65,69],{"name":60,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":62},"What training pacing principles does the plan require?","Question",{"text":63,"@type":64},"Keep easy runs very easy and hard runs hard.
