My 15-week half marathon training plan

When you need a few extra weeks to train

Morning, friends! ☀️

I just wanted to send a quick follow-up to the 12-week training plan I shared with you last Friday, as I know many of you have races planned for the new year that you may need a schedule for — so, I’m sharing the training plans I’ve developed over the past few years.

This plan, my 15-week schedule, is ideal if you have three-and-a-half to four months to train, so if you’re looking at a race in say, April, this will help you get to race day ready to go.

It includes a week-by-week breakdown of the miles you need to run, the long run each week (in bold), all leading up to the taper a couple of weeks or so before your race.

There’s also a downloadable PDF version at the end of the schedule, so you can print it out if you like. Feel free to reach out with any questions!
