I think that it’s the perfect challenge for runners of any level too.
It’s far enough to be a big achievement (13.1 miles is LONG way!) but short enough that you can train for it without it taking over your life in quite the same way that a marathon or ultra does. Typically I run half marathons as part of marathon training, utilising them as long runs or fun runs. Whilst my big goal is a marathon this year, I’m breaking it down into smaller training blocks Īnd so will be looking to run a half marathon PB this year ( currently 1.40 from Phoenix 2019) and training properly for a half for the first time ever. However, I am optimistic for smaller races to happen in the summer and autumn this year, and so I’m continuing to train as if they are.
Sure, I’ve looked at some possibilities, from local 5Ks to the Chicago Marathon and my rollover place from 2020 but it’s hard to feel confident that any of them will actually go ahead right now. I’m sure I’m not the only one who doesn’t actually have a race on the calendar right now.
