It sounds like he is putting in the miles (properly) to train for a marathon. You really have to run about 50+ miles per week to do a <3 hour marathon.sopas said:By the way for those interested, retired rider Abrahan Olano just run a Marathon a few months ago in 2h.39:19
He run his first marathon in 2005 with a time of 2h.53.07
For his last 2h.39:19 race in november 2006 he said he had trained 6 days a week, about 2 hours each day.
Good for Olano.
