Training

13.1 Marathon® is a new series of races and we encourage the community to create and take part in training programs through local running stores, clubs and social or charity training groups. Let us know if you are forming a group and we will send new people your way!

The 13.1 Marathon® - Los Angeles has teamed up with ActiveTrainer coaches to create a half marathon training programs that are a balance of aerobic, anaerobic and cross-training workouts. This training program is built to get people of all levels across the finish line. From the first timer to the seasoned veteran, you will find the right training program for you.
