If you signed up to run the Honor Run Half Marathon, you’re down to just ten weeks left to train, which sounds like a lot of time. But, if you are a beginner, you may want to hop off the couch now.
(Haven’t registered, yet? That’s OK – there’s still time! Click here to sign up today.)
Not sure how to get started? Download our half marathon training plan.
The plan, courtesy of a trainer with Lifetime Run Club, includes two rest days each week and a day to add in some cross training.
Cross training could be swimming, biking, weight-lifting or even yoga, as long as you’re taking a break from running. Adding in some weights isn’t a bad idea, if you’re trying to strengthen your legs for race day.
