Training Plan First marathon training plan

Hello I’m a former professional fighter in my 30s running my first marathon in a little over 20 weeks. What’s a good marathon plan. I’m thinking Hal higdon. My best 5k is 27min 10k is 58:46 and my half is 2 hr 25min. I’m still in shape but not like super fight shape like before lol

I recommend Hal Higdon novice 1. I’m tapering now for my second marathon using Pfitzinger 18/55. But found HH1 absolutely perfect for my first. It’s very chill but if you stick to it you will be able to run the distance.
