Freshworks Chennai Marathon 2027
11 weeks to race day. Counted from today’s date in India.
, Chennai. Organiser: Chennai Runners. AKURA is not the organiser of this race. AKURA coaches your training; you enter the race itself on the official race site.
For runners who want a longer goal at FCM. Threshold at the centre, faster work in the middle phases.
For first-time racers and runners chasing a faster 10K. Threshold and intervals on top of easy running.
This signs you up for AKURA’s training, not for the race. Race entry is with the organisers.
How every AKURA plan works
Five phases
Base, build, peak, sharpen and taper. Which one you start in depends on how many weeks are left to your race.
Heart rate is the governor, pace is the target
Paces come from your TAEI (AKURA Endurance Index). Your heart rate decides how hard a day really is.
No plan until we know you
You finish the intake and add your runs first. Until then the app shows no plan and no scores.
Train for FCM with a coach behind every week
Sign up for AKURA’s FCM training, or answer a few questions to find the plan that fits you. Either way, your plan is built from your own runs and your race date.
