Plan Description

Do you have some experience or very little experience with running?

Then this 12 week training plan will prepare you for the Half Marathon race which you have or have not signed up for yet. If you are not training for a Half marathon, but have other goals like coming back from an injury or coming back from a long time out of shape, this plan will get you back up by starting with short sessions and increasing slowly.

There are few requirements for doing this plan. The only demand is that you must have a stopwatch. This plan suits people from 18-50 years of age particularly with a focus on the Half Marathon distance (21,1km or 13,1 miles). People with no or little experience should be able to do this plan. All sessions are time based, so if you find the training volume too big, you can always do shorter sessions and take an extra rest day if you desire.
