An Alternative Marathon Training Program

Take note, though: While Galloway's training method reduces your risk of injury and increases your chances of completing a marathon, it's not designed to produce maximum speed. But for those who wish to complete a marathon for a charity team, and not as a serious competitor, this may be the ideal training program.
