Half Marathon Training Plan
Last week I ran my first half marathon in almost 2 years!! I had taken a break from longer distances and stuck to 5 and 10Ks for a while since that’s what I enjoy most! But training for this half helped me get motivated to do longer runs and actually ignited a new love for longer (for me) runs!

I am so proud to say I ran my first Half Marathon! I put in a lot of training and hard work. I almost couldn’t run this because 3 weeks before my race I developed a stress injury. I seen doctors, had an mri, went to physical therapy, recovery therapy, and did everything I could to run this race.

tips for your first half marathon 🫶🏻
1. Start out slower than you want - you can always build as you go (and it’s more exciting imo). The second half is where it gets mental. 2. Practice eating & drinking well before race day. Incorporate gels/chews/candy/etc into your long runs (60+ mins). Get used to drinking while moving to
