OTHER RUNNERS FAQ’s
This training plan helped me to improve my PB at Our local half-Marathon (1:38). Varied runs and good tips and instructions on how to do the different runs, what speed to maintain for different training etc. The plan is split in two, with distances and speeds in both miles and km, which is good (miles is useless to us Norwegians). Thanks, Ben!
This plan has helped me alot to achieve my goals in half marathon. A good varied training plan and not too hard on the legs either
Great training plan. Easy to understand, very clear and well laid out. I always use Ben's plans. Well worth it. Love the pace chart to help set specific times for each session depending on your goal pace. Thanks Ben.
Great half marathon plan. I used this plan to run my first half marathon. I aimed for 1:35 but I ran a 1:33.
The plan was varied and kept me interested, also perfect to fit around the 9 to 5 work as the long runs tend to be at weekends when I have more time.
It’s 5 stars from me!
Managed to take 7 minutes off my pb with the help of this plan. 👍
Bought this plan to try to hit my (ambitious!) target of sub 1hr 40 in the Manchester Half. I finished with a PB of 1:39:17 so it worked out perfectly. I didn't follow it to the letter as I was already doing other activities (football 1-2 times per week and a bit of cycling) but it brought a much needed structure to my training with proper pacing and distance guidelines to follow. The plan mixes the sessions up nicely and builds the speed and distance gradually, so you never feel like it's getting too much to handle. I'll be moving on to a marathon plan next!
