Why this matters for marathon training
Marathon training fails in week seven, not on race day. The plan is public, the shoes are bought, and then a cold Tuesday arrives when nobody would know if you skipped. A vision board is useful here precisely because it is not about the finish line - it is about that Tuesday. Put yourself mid-stride, in the weather you actually train in, looking like someone for whom this is simply what they do. Race-day imagery is the easy part and the least useful; every runner already has it. What needs reinforcing is the identity of a person who runs when it is inconvenient, because that is the only version of you who reaches the start.
Practically: build it around your training block rather than the race, and refresh it when the block changes. One image of the distance that currently scares you is worth more than five of the medal. If you are coming back from injury, let a physio set the ceiling; imagery is good at sustaining consistency and useless at assessing a tendon.

Does visualization help with a training goal like marathon training?+
It helps alongside training, not instead of it. Jeannerod and Decety (1995) showed that imagining a movement recruits much of the same motor circuitry as performing it, which is why athletes use mental rehearsal next to physical practice. For marathon training, picture the daily work, the session, the meal prep, the morning routine, rather than only the end result: Pham and Taylor (1999) found that imagining the process helped where imagining only the outcome did not.
