6:08→3:11 Marathon Blueprint: Working Mom's 12-Week Training Plan

You want to run a marathon PR. Maybe it's your first sub-4, your BQ attempt, or just proof that motherhood and a career don't mean your fastest days are behind you. But every training plan you've seen was written for someone who can nap after long runs, meal-prep on Sundays, and run whenever their Garmin tells them to. That's not your life. This guide is built for working moms who refuse to choose between showing up for their families and chasing their running goals. Inside, you'll get the 12-week training framework that took Kim from a 6:08 marathon to a 3:11—while working full-time and raising a toddler. No monastic training blocks. No 100-mile weeks. Just smart mileage, strategic fueling, treadmill hacks for brutal weather, and recovery protocols that fit into real life. You'll learn how to carb-load without overthinking it, handle random knee tweaks two weeks out, survive the mental spiral of taper, and show up on race day ready to run the best 26.2 miles of your life. This isn't about perfection. It's about progress, consistency, and proving to yourself that you can do hard things—even when life is chaos. Kim has run 23 marathons, coaches runners, and knows exactly what it takes to PR when you're juggling everything. If you're ready to stop making excuses and start making moves, this is your plan.
