Preparation

Good preparation is the be-all and end-all.

Lactate tests and running meetings are helpful.

The preparation must be varied

A combination of specialized endurance training and strength-building exercises is important. The rule of thumb is: volume over intensity. In other words, more long, easy runs than short, intense tempo runs. After all, training isn’t a race—which is why runners should stick to their training plans.

Our training program for the Linz Marathon will be published in due course.

Running clubs

Our popular running groups have become a staple of many people’s training routines in recent years.

The running meetups will begin in November 2026 and will take place every Saturday—hosted alternately by LIVA and Oberbank.
