Guest Angie Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Hi! I finished c25k and towards the end of the training someone asked if I wanted to try and get in the SF Nike women's 1/2 marathon...I didn't really think we would get in but we were drawn in the lottery! It's been many years and about 75lbs ago since I ran consistently so I'm nervous about 13.1! I did do the Avon walk for breast cancer last year which was 26.2 day 1 and 13.1 day 2, but there was no time limit! Would love advice as to how to prepare for finishing 13.1 in under 15min/mile pace when I'm in almost the worst shape I've been in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunningDork26.2 Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 I love Hal Higdon's plans. Here's one of his novice half-marathon plans. When is your race? The best thing you can do is just begin working on getting the miles done. The more miles you run, the faster you will naturally become. For this, I wouldn't really recommend speed training (that's how I hurt myself before my first half), but it may be helpful to hit some hills and whatnot! You can do it.

NikkiRuns Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 One of my coworkers suggested Hal Higdon's plan for my 5k. I use it in conjunction with my c2 5k app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
