About This Program

Let's improve your race time! This plan is best for experienced Half Marathoners who know they can cover the distance and are ready to add speedwork to the mix!

This plan provides a relaxed build up, half marathon specific speedwork and an emphasis on strength training to guide runners in reaching their potential.
