People, repeat after me: ChatGPT is not general-purpose AI. It's trained on words, not marathon training data. There is probably a way for some other AI to come up with a useful marathon training program, but you wouldn't use ChatGPT or its relatives, you'd train it on completely different kinds of data, and you'd ask it to produce different types of responses.

Yeah, exactly. That’s why it’s hilarious it will even do things like this! Another fun thing is to ask it to make a new delicious dish using ridiculous ingredients. 😂

I just realized if you take out all of the ‘GMP’ and replaced it with ‘easy’ this would look like a Seth Demoor training log. Butter my algorithm!
What, you’re saying jogging 40 miles around a parking lot doesn’t prepare you for a far faster and hilly 50k?

In this article, ChatGPT recommended someone aiming for a 25-minute 5K to do a 30-minute tempo run at faster than 5K race pace.

Total Mileage: 27 milesThe weekly mileage totals are incorrect. Week 9 should be 98+ miles, week 10 should be 100+ miles, and week 18 should be 53+ miles. That thing can't even add properly.
