A nifty spreadsheet with some useful tools for people who train according to Daniels' Running Formula. Works fine in LibreOffice Calc.
An excellent review of JD's marathon plan by Trent Gill. This is basically the plan I'm planning to follow this summer.
Greg Kroleski's marathon training plan, loosely based on Jack Daniels' formula, which got him to a 2:42 finish.
