Expats.cz and Prague International Marathon have put together a training plan for you helping runners get ready for the first race of this year’s season. However, training sessions won’t stop come race day on 6th April but will continue right up until 12th May when registered runners will take on the mighty Volkswagen Prague Marathon. Stick to our training plan and you’ll have no problem managing both of races!

These races have been incorporated in the RunCzech Running League. For taking part, each participant picks up a certain number of points (calculated as the ratio between the course length and the participant’s finishing time) and places them in a unique running ranking system classifying runners according to age, sex and, above all, profession. In 2012, the fastest runner was an agricultural worker followed by a programmer and radio / TV employee. Did you run any of the RunCzech races in 2012? Provided you included the details of your profession when filling out the registration form, you can check out how well you did here.
