Runners world training plan

[Dups]

I’m not very good at interesting posts, but for anyone that might be training for a HM in the future that hasn’t ran one before, I would definitely recommend Runnersworld training plan for beginners ( for those who can run 10k). I’m in week 11 with one week to go before my first HM in Newcastle. It incorporates short runs, long runs and runs with hills 🥵. I feel it has been brilliant preparation work enabling me to hopefully get round in one piece. Today I ran 11.26 km ( 7 miles) achieving a PB for 10km, shaving 1:55 off my previous. So 1:04:54. I’m elated. Feel like a winner already 😂

Good luck to everyone running a HM in the coming weeks 🤗

Well done, Dups!

Thanks, I’ve noted that plan for futures. It could be my goal after next. 🙂

Thanks Ian. I think it’s a great plan, it has worked for me 👍

Thank you! I was going to ask about HM plans - I want to start training for that distance next month.

There's lots of useful info over on our racing sister-forum!:

Didn't know that existed! Thank you roseabi!

Good luck with all your future running. Im still pinching myself that I’m actually going to do it

[Grannyhugs Graduate10]

Great new time for 10k glad you are so happy with this plan. A great recommendation. Happy running 🤗

[Dups Graduate10]

I am elated. I have exceeded all expectations since I joined and going from C25k to HM is unbelievable 😊

That’s a great and very interesting post, good luck with your HM I don’t have time yet but retirement is looming so who knows

[Dups Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

Thank you . Retirement sounds great. I’ve got 4 years left to work. Can’t wait

It doesn’t look so rosy when you get really near, I’d love to be 4 years younger lol,

Thanks for that only just got to the 10k mark but would hope to get to this milestone and having a future plan is always helpful! Good luck in your first half marathon a fabulous feat 🏃‍♀️🏃🏻🎉

Thank you. Congratulations on your 10k 👏👏👏 It is amazing what we can achieve with determination and of course encouragement from this brilliant forum. Last year I would have laughed if someone said I would be running a HM. Hope to see all your future milestones posted. Build up slowly and I’ll watch out for your 10mile post. Good luck 🤗
