There are a lot of training programs out there, and each are different. You have to intentionally schedule your training runs, and be consistent every week. One thing I have learned about implementing a half marathon training schedule for beginners, is that you cannot just wing your training. Running the Great Wall Half Marathon, one of many runs I’ve successfully trained for! So, are you ready to take on your first half marathon? Of course you are, but first you will need a comprehensive 16 week half marathon training schedule for beginners. It has been a slow, intentional learning process, but one that has given me a lot of insights from tried and true practices. “Runcations” are now an integral part of my active travel lifestyle. Years later, I have finished some of my most difficult races so far, from 5,000 steps on the Great Wall Half Marathon, to 13 frozen miles at the Polar Circle Half Marathon ( by far one of the best experiences you can have in Greenland), and many, many miles in between. Hence the reason I have found it so valuable to have created a precise half marathon training schedule to follow. And that is saying a lot, because barely over a decade ago I could not run a mile. Now in the double digits for half marathons completed, I have to say that this running distance is by far my favorite.
