Plan Description

Intermediate Half Marathon Plan – Train Smart, Race Fast

Designed for runners looking to achieve their best, this structured, heart rate-based plan helps you build speed, efficiency, and race confidence.

✅ Strategic Progression – A non-linear periodisation model ensures each week builds on the last for steady, sustainable improvements.
✅ Efficiency Over Effort – We focus on smart movement patterns, helping you run faster with better mechanics, not just by chasing heart rate zones.
✅ Varied & Engaging Workouts – Say goodbye to repetitive training—this plan keeps things fresh, effective, and results-driven.

Need support? Unlimited email guidance is included—we’re here to help you every step of the way.
