I heard back from Pete Pfitzinger and he's given me permission to publish up to 3 of his plans. I've selected 2 of the 55-mile plans and one of the 70-mile plans. I hope this would satisfy most users out there. Great news. I heard back from Pete Pfitzinger and he’s given me permission to publish up to 3 of his plans.

I got an auto-response that he will have limited email access for this week. Maybe he would respond over the weekend or early next week. Alternatively, I also offered to provide him with the code so he can host it on www.pfitzinger.com or whereever he chooses. Unless I get his permission, I don't see being able to reinstate his plans without opening up myself to lawsuits and I can't afford that.

I was just going to start fiddling with dates and whether I should do a 12/18, 55/70. I thought your plan generator left off enough details/information that it was impossible to use without buying the book. Once you buy the book it becomes a useful tool. Do you think you'll put it back online ... ? Hi Derek,

It has been a valuable and easy to use resource and really beat referring to my Pfitzinger book as I trained for my marathon this Sunday. Truely, I think you should offer Pftizinger and Higdon your tool as it's vastly superior than anything I've seen. As an aside, i think it's ridicious they'd ask you to take it down -- i bought the Pftizinger book and Hidgon for a previous marathon. Well, I thank you for making it available.

I guess you at least got contacted from a running legend. Maybe you can post the email. :) Thankfully I downloaded my pfitzinger training plan a few days ago. I am not sure it is a good thing though... it is alot of running! .A Ouch! I guess you at least got contacted from a running legend. Maybe you can post the email. :)
