Your Plan screen shows how every workout fits into the bigger build. You always know what you are doing and why it matters. TRAIN WITH YOUR RACE CLUB Marathon training is long. It is easier when you are not doing it alone. Choose from more than 200 supported marathons and Stride puts you in a Race Club with runners headed to the same start line.
