    Try the Galloway Method. I trained for my first marathon with it in 6 months, effectively doubling my mileage every week.

    Its a pattern of running (your set pace) and then walking (slower pace). Do 30secs/30secs, move up to 60/30, 60/60, 120/60... or just play with increasing your pace.

    It's amazing how much safer, farther and faster you can run when you mix running and walking - it's almost cheating it so easy. It's also kinda cool to pass the people that flew by you at the beginning of the race when there mpm falls at the end and you are either speeding up or keeping it constant.
