Hi

I'm 26M, and I have been running for a little over a year. My marathon PR is 4:10 (I've only done 1) and my half-marathon PR is 1:44. I have had a hard time meeting my goals (1:30 half, 3:30 marathon) because I keep getting injured and being unable to train consistently. I was doing Daniels' 2Q marathon training plan, with a peak mileage of 30, when I got Posterior Tibial Tendonitis. I saw a PT (they says it's safe to run with this condition), and I have been doing targeted exercises for it.

I think a general strength training plan will help me as well. The one in the Daniels' Running Formula doesn't seem robust enough (I am able to do it with moderate ease), so I am looking for a very structured one that I can follow.

Here is a list of options:

  • Quick Strength for Runners
  • Strength Training for Runners
  • Build Your Running Body
  • Anatomy for Runners
  • Running Strong
  • 5/3/1
  • Starting Strength (I have this, but it feels too powerlifting focused. When I tried it, it made my runs suffer)
  • Wiki recommendations
  • Any other options?

Which of these offers a good plan with structure, science, and ideally minimal equipment for building running-targeted strength?
