Simple to follow to get it done

I followed this plan for a sub 4 goal , I loved how simple it was to follow and program the workouts into my garmin. I didn't achieve the goal as I injured myself 2 weeks out and took a complete week off running I re-adjusted my goal and managed to get round in 4h.08. Note to self: I should have followed the strength and conditiong plan

A plan that asks for dedication & rewards in return.

I'm 58 and after last year's Canberra Half Marathon with a finishing time of 1.54 using another training plan, I wanted to do this year's race and see if I could get close to a 1.45 time so I downloaded BP's L3 Half Marathon plan and accompanying strength training guide. Having followed the plan religiously for the first 9 weeks, I then picked up a lower leg injury resulting in almost a week of training and fortunately was then able to get back into running and completed the race in 1.46, or what equated to 4.59/km pace. To be honest, at this point i was just hoping to either beat my previous year's time or get down to 1.50 so my final finishing time really is testiment to a plan that pushes your running the right way without breaking you. Highly recommended and thank you Ben.

Half Marathon Plan Intermediate - L3

Goal achieved despite setbacks!

Goal was for at least sub 40. Was a bit doubtful at the start as I was on the higher end of the pacing chart for 40mins. I started to achieve better targets as the plan went on as I knew if I could run the paces come the end of the plan I had a good chance. A few missed sessions due to some family illnesses in week 5, a week missed between week 8 and 9 due to a tooth extraction, so was not the smoothest training block. Come race day and every came together! Clocked 39:17 for the 10k and was delighted!!

I absolutely loved the double speed work sessions and feel like they contributed massively to my success. The progression runs also were magic! Although I do tend to love that type of workout.

Have already bought the half marathon program with the goal for September.

All the plans are well put together, easy to follow and THEY WORK! Plain and simple... Give them a try, highly recommended!

Getting It Done Running Singlet

Rob M (GB)

Very well packaged and delivery was fast. More than happy with the fit and feel of this singlet. Extremely comfy to wear and let's not forget the eye catching colours.

Soar Elite Singlet

Daniel (GB)

Super comfortable, looks fantastic

Confession: I bought this as a last minute vest for The Newport Marathon and never tested it before the race. I know you shouldn't do stuff like that but I had 100% faith in the Soar brand because they're held in such high regard. You don't even realise you're wearing it, and that is most helpful in a marathon when you want to keep the discomfort to a minimum. It looks great too. I followed Ben's Level 4 Marathon training plan and wanted to represent the brand and feel good on the start line. The vest definitely helped with that. I'm 5ft 9" with a 36" chest and the SMALL fitted perfectly.

Getting it done t-shirt

Bought this running t-shirt for a 100 miler I had coming up, fitted perfectly and passed a few training runs.
So wore it on the 100 miler and it performed amazingly, so happy with it.
