Why?My mate trained for a marathon by doing short (relative) sprint distances. The best way to improve fitness is getting the heart rate up and going fast. When you then go at a slower pace it is easier to get the longer distance.https://community.betfair.com/horse_antepost/go/thread/view/94098/30269567/will-he-stay?post_id=539500997#539500997My mate trained for a marathon by doing short (relative) sprint distances.
