Trusting the Process: Frank’s 1-Hour PR in the Marathon

Â
When Frank first reached out for marathon coaching, he had a clear goal—he wanted to conquer the marathon. A former college track athlete, he was no stranger to hard work, but the long-distance grind was a whole new challenge. He knew he had the speed, but marathon racing requires patience, strategy, and trust in the process.
Over the months of training, Frank did just that—he trusted the plan, put in the work, and stayed consistent. Long runs, threshold workouts, dialing in nutrition, and smart recovery all became part of his routine. It wasn’t always easy, but he committed to the process, knowing that every session was building toward something big.
Race day arrived, and Frank executed perfectly. He stayed patient early, found his rhythm, and when it was time to push, he had the strength to drop the hammer. The result? A jaw-dropping 2:56 marathon, shattering his previous best by a full hour!
Frank proved that trusting the process works. From track athlete to marathon crusher, he showed up, put in the work, and delivered when it mattered most. This is just the beginning for him—who knows what’s next?
Huge congrats, Frank! The marathon is yours.
