half marathon?

I thought I’d leave this here for anyone who wants to venture into the 13 mile gang. It’s what I used for my return to them in 2018 and has no bearing on pace, purely increasing mileage 😊

I'm going to give it a go.......but everyone here knows I start well and then fizzle out so you'll have to nudge me 😂

Thanks Rob. wonder if you’ve seen there’s another board dedicated to running beyond 10k… you might like to have a browse around here:

That plan looks quite similar to one I did. I found running five days a week too much for me and switched on to a four day a week one. I need my rest days and plenty of strength work to keep me off the injury couch!! Pesky IT band. We’re all different though.

Just as a tip for anyone thinking of taking on this plan, it’s always a good idea to build up to running on consecutive days gradually if you’re not used to it.

Are you hoping to build back to HM distance? Good luck if so!

I’d like to get back to running miles again. Not necessarily 13 miles and certainly no more events (I never call them races), just go as far as I can

Sorry I think I just assumed you were aiming for a HM because of sharing the plan. Any running is worthwhile! Enjoy the process!

Looks a fantastic plan and one I will look at for later in the year when I have the Manchester half in October. I'm currently using the NRC app for my training

I found it simple and still use it to just try and up my mileage, even if I don’t reach 13
