Full glossary of terms so you'll always know what to do.

Loads of tips each week so you can learn along the way and stay motivated!

So much attention to details

So thoughtfully created down to the very last detail. I love the clear structure, explanations, and the strength workouts too! I tried other workout plans and there's really no comparison.

Structure after a half

After completing the beginner's half marathon program, I was looking for some structure to maintain consistency. This plan is great so far! I'm in week 3 and enjoying the variety and challenge. I also appreciate the flexibility it offers by being structured in blocks. On a side note, I've tried many half marathon programs with no success. Ben Parkes' Beginner Program was the first I managed to stick with and complete! Highly recommend it!

In-Between Races - L2

Useful plan

Gives me structure on a daily and weekly basis. Particularly like the pacing charts so can see what eg “tempo”or “easy“ means in actual pace I should be running at to achieve target race time

Marathon plan in between

As I am planning to run marathon in September I purchased 2 plans from Ben to go all the way until my race day. In between and 15 weeks marathon plan. Looks really good, all planed and scheduled so I don't have to think about it jut go and run. Thank you Ben

Road to a new PR

I have been following Ben for a while on YouTube but just recently purchased a training plan. I used the Intermediate L3 to hit a new PR in the Marine Corps Marathon in Washington, DC. My success in the race was a direct result of the training plan. I've now purchased another plan to get that time down even further. Thanks, Ben!

Fantastic!

Very lightweight, comfortable, love the color, long sleeves to keep the winter cold off your arms. Great product and arrived in super fast time.

A Perfect top for Athens

I've just run Athens Marathon, and helped pace a friend to get her a sub 5hr. I wanted a replacement Elite top, to replace the previous B.P. tops I have, and this was perfect. Nearly5hrs on our feet in 20°c Greec heat, and i finished feeling fresh as a daisy. I didnt over heat, and look cool 😎.
I would highly recommend one of Ben's Elite / Soar tops to anyone .

Getting it done in New Zealand!

The perfect hat. Super breathable and comfortable. Will be wearing it at the Queenstown Marathon on Saturday.

Very nice and got noticed

This top is perfect for what I was looking for. When I wore it the first time a person in my running group spotted it was from Ben Parkes too because he also follows the YouTube channel and it matches so well with my novablast 4 baby blue runners.

Excited to try this plan

I used the L3 plan for my last marathon and got a new pb using it - it definitely suited me. I'm very much looking forward to trying this L4 plan. The intensity and mileage is just what I am looking for. Easy to read and follow, with suggested paces. Great value price as well, can't really go wrong.

Green L/S Running Tee

Great looking and feeling top. Wore it on my 10km run and it's a colour that sticks out from the crowd so family members could see me coming.
Also fairly priced with different unique designs to what the rest of the crowd is wearing.
Also loved the personal thank you message from Sheri, Big up to mummzy Ben loved that. Happy to support the business and will purchase again in the near future.

We all need it

Nice and comfortable. Love the pattern. Everyone should’ve at least one in the wardrobe.

100k Success!

I used this plan for my 2024 Javelina Jundred 100k race and completed the race! I felt really well prepared, but not overtrained. I didn't feel like I was dying during the plan's long runs, and was able to recover quickly after each one to start fresh each week. I felt like it was easy to move days around to fit my schedule too, which is helpful! I'm a back-of-the-middle-of-the-pack runner and this worked for me!
