This 24-week training plan is for the individual who is already able to run at least 3 miles and has been training regularly for 3 months. The focus of the plan is to provide a systematic approach to a running program in order to achieve the goal of finishing strong in a half marathon and/or setting the stage for more extensive training (i.e., longer or faster runs) in the future. If you have not met this criteria you might want to consider choosing the Walk-to-Jog plan before starting the program.
