Okay guys this is my plan. My race is April 26, so that is 14 weeks away. I made up the first 2 weeks of this plan to get me running again before I do the 12 week training program on www.runnersworld.com. The reason I liked the half marathon challenge training was because one of the ladies training weighed 172lbs. Big girls can run too! ( and so can big guys!)
Here is what I'm doing the first two weeks........
week one:
Jan 21- run 10 2 minute intervals with 3 minute walk in between. Remember that it doesn't have to be fast!
Jan 22- same
Jan23- run 10 3 minute intervals with 3 minute walk in between.
Jan 24- same
Jan 25- day off!!
Week two:
Jan 26- run 10>4min walk 3 min in between
Jan 27- run same
Jan 30- run 10>5min walk 3min in between
Jan 28- run same
Jan 29- run same
Jan 30- day off!!!
After 2nd week I start the runners world half marathon training schedule. I will also start weight training at this time. (body for life)
We should all use eachother for support during this time! We can do it!!!
