The half marathon is becoming an increasingly popular race distance. Hanson’s Coaching Services currently offers three different levels of training schedules to get you to your first or best half marathon!

If your goal is to simply cover the distance, then this is the training program for you! The program focuses on a safe buildup of weekly mileage to handle the duration of a half marathon. Although this is a simple training program, I do recommend that anyone wanting to use this program has completed at least a 5k or 10k race.

The beginner program is designed to take a runner who has been running shorter distances and want to move up. This schedule will take the runner from 16 to about 40 miles per week over an 18 week duration. Along the way the runner is introduced to specific workouts to help them achieve a great half marathon experience.
