    In the Marathon 3 plan, there are quite a few instances of two workouts in a day. Can these be combined if time permits or should they be done as AM+PM workouts?

    For example – RF5+RRe5 on a Saturday could be combined to 1:20 total with 0:30 in Z2.

    mdray,

    Welcome to the Forums! On the days with two workouts schedules, these are always scheduled with the first workout as a Run and the second as a Run or Cross-train. Regardless of whether you choose to run or cross-train the second workout, the two workouts would ideally be done in the AM and PM, or at least as far apart as possible. In extreme circumstances, the two workouts can be combined together, but preferably the second workout is simply moved to another day of the week.
