Sub-3 Marathon

About Kirk Mueller
I specialize in helping runners reach a goal of running a sub-3 marathon. I have run sub-3-hour marathons spanning 33-years (1980 - 2013).
Description
I started running in 1975 and ran my first sub-3 marathon at Penn Relays on 4/20/1980 while running for the University of Pittsburgh. I started my second running career in 2007 with the goal of running a sub-3 marathon on as little mileage as possible. 40, 45, and 50 miles per week yielded bonks before the 20 mile mark. Finally, in 2010 I averaged 55 miles per week, which yielded a breakthrough at the Mercedes Marathon in Birmingham, AL (3:00:06) with fuel left in the tank and poor clock/watch management. This was followed up with four successful sub-3 marathons after utilizing Daniels' Running Formula: Boston - 2011 - 2:59 Mercedes - 2012 - 2:59 Pittsburgh - 2013 - 2:59 California International Marathon - 2013 - 2:59
Athlete Requirements
Willing to build mileage to a minimum of 55 - 60 miles per week and aiming for a sub-3 marathon or something in that range.

UPDATE: December 24, 2024 - I finally achieved my first Sub-3 marathon with a time of 2:58:23 at Valencia. A massive shoutout to Coach K, without whom this accomplishment would not have been possible...
