Half Marathon: Break 1:35

For runners who've run a half marathon in 1:40-1:45 and want to break 1:35 (or push for sub-1:25).

12 weeks
Goal: 1:35-1:25 or faster
Weekly volume max: 70-90 kms

Is this plan for you?

This very advanced plan is for half marathon runners who have run in the 1:40 to 1:45 range and are looking to improve their personal best times to sub 1:35 or even get under 1:25.

The plan tops out at 70-90 kms per week. If you haven't run a single week 40km in your running career yet, we highly recommend that you take several months (or even a year) to build up your mileage base so you are consistently averaging at least 50km-70km per week on a regular basis without any serious injury before starting this training program.

Also, we highly recommend that before starting this plan you've taken a break from racing and are starting fresh with an established base of at least 2-3 weeks of easy-paced running of at least 50-65 kms a week.
