Plan Description
This training plan will give you a specific workout based on your max HR.
The plan is for novice athlete that aims to finish the half marathon and improve former races.
The first month is designed to establish a good aerobic base so be patient and don't run at harder than the plan.
There are three must workouts: Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday.
Monday workout is various interval workouts.
Wednesday workout is a tempo workout that will gradually assimilate the pace for the race.
Saturday is the long run that is needed for building aerobic endurance.
Tuesday and Friday are also required for building aerobic endurance, but if you feel tired or hurting you may skip.
From week 3 the workouts will be progressed by length and intensity to build lactate threshold endurance.
I have added strength workouts on Tuesday and stretch workouts on Sunday. I suggest to not to skip these workouts as they will keep your body safe from injury
stay committed and the results will come.
