Hello there everyone. Just wanted to update that I have finished my week 1 of the 12 week half program. I am following the free plans available on nike and they seem to be very good. The first week was of 30 miles. Started week 2 today with an EASY 5 mile run. I never thought I would say that. EASY 5 MILES πŸ˜‚.

Anyway this week is of 31 miles and the month's mileage would be 150 miles πŸ˜‡.

Hope I would get through this without any injuries.

Good luck. Sounds impressive, doable all the same. Says me who only just managed 110km last month!

Happy running πŸ‘Ÿ

Yep, that's a lot of miles in a week! Take care and make sure you take enough rest to avoid injury. Good luck :)
