10-week Outdoor Half Marathon
Level: Intermediate
Duration: 10 weeks
Each week you have:
4-5 running workouts
1-2 strength training workouts (weights and bodyweight)
1-2 mobility workouts
Program details: This 10-week half marathon plan is a great program for a runner who wants a fast-track to the finish line. All the running workouts in this plan are based on effort and distance, so even if you’re more of an experienced beginner-level runner, this plan could work! All the strength training workouts are runner-specific and help you to improve strength, stability, and overall running efficiency. The mobility workouts are designed to improve your movement capacity, joint strength, and range of motion. I would recommend building somewhat of a base prior to starting this plan (running about 15-20 miles per week for 2-3 weeks before starting). Be sure to check out the pacing recommendations and program schedule on day 1!
Equipment: Mat, treadmill, kettlebell (optional to use dumbbells for some kettlebell exercises), resistance bands (purchase HERE), yoga block, foam roller, and a bench or box.
