TBR Dream Plus offers the complete package for a TBR Dream Marathon participant. The entire program has been designed to give you a well-balanced workout plan for leading up to the marathon. While we believe in the Principle of Specificity (running as the priority workout when training for a marathon), we also believe that strength training is essential to enhance your running performance, improve your running form, strengthen muscles and joints, and prevent injury.
TBR Dream Plus is a 20-week program which includes the official TBR Dream Beginner Marathon program along with the following:
+ Run-specific strengthening workouts with Coach Jim Spiers. Strengthening workouts using bodyweight or light weights to help build lean muscle mass, strengthens your muscles, bones and joints to withstand the rigours of long runs, and reduce the risk of injury during marathon training.
+ Yoga sessions with Coach Lace Ang. A variety of yoga classes delivered online that complement the Beginner program of TBR Dream Marathon. The classes will help loosen tight muscles, improve flexibility, and speed muscle recovery throughout the marathon journey
+ Meditation sessions with Coach Tricia Chiongbian-Concepcion. A mix of meditation and breathing sessions delivered online that help with mental health to reduce anxiety and build mental toughness
