This is a 14-week training program, designed for runners who are comfortable with 3 - 4 miles and capable of building distance gradually to 12 miles over 14 weeks of training.

Training Program Overview:

• Just three days of running (or run/walk) per week
• Two days of cross-training per week
• Two rest days per week
• One long run each week, building from 3 miles up to 12 miles by the end of the program

This program is basically the same as the widely used Runner's World Beginner Half Marathon Training Plan, which you also may want to consult.

We offer this guide as an optional resource if it feels right to you.  Obviously, listen to your body and tailor the program to suit your needs.  Every runner is unique!
