Half Marathon Training Workouts To Set A New PR!

[@brandonluu7587]

Ran my first half-marathon early this May and ran around 1hr52min. I didn't train enough for hills and that costed me so much time. My second half-marathon this July I'll make sure to focus on more hill training and hopefully crack 1hr 45min. 'Trust the process'

[@Sarahthecopyninja]

Wow great! Your first HM you already get sub2hr.. Good luck for your 2nd race.🙌

[@MoreHockeyCardsPlease]

where was this video shot at? The background looks beautiful and a fun place to run

[@newkool100]

Good tips, thanks for the share.

[@ginathompson3408]

Enjoyed the video - great training tips as always :). I especially liked the idea of consistent running versus getting fewer but longer runs. I tend to get fixated on logging those long run miles but have found that my training is steadier and recovery better when I just get in a shorter daily run. :)

10x more effective than how long or fast you can run... seriously.

[@DanRuns]

Thanks for the tips!

[@carlosnegron3562]

Hi guys. Love the videos..keep them coming. Try to find technique on running up and down hills.

Running my first 10 miler today

[@kaitlinsitta3328]

How would you recommend I stay motivated while running for an extended period of time?

[@TheRunExperience]

Music or podcasts, a new trail, or running partners can all help with you stay motivated and enjoying those longer training runs!

[@MichaelOlzinski]

I would also add to say.... "FORM." If you keep going through some small checklist of form, and you do that every 7-10 minutes...you will be SHOCKED how fast the time goes by!

Try a new, different place to run. Run with a group of people, you seem to perform better running with a group of people.

Did I understand correctly that for the progressive tempo, I'm supposed to do 2-2-2 for a year? My half marathon is in 10 weeks...

[@Daveandharry]

How about a few videos for the “older” runners? 65+?? Training for 1/2 marathon or 5K?

[@TheRunExperience]

Good suggestion- thanks!

[@Daveandharry]

The Run Experience that’s awesome! I’ll keep an eye out on your channel for sure...Thank you!

[@manuelacrucitti6599]

I'm following u guys since April and I've found your videos very interesting, I've done 6 HM but always 2h15 2h 23 (very hot weather though) and I would like to improve those times, any suggestions more specific 4 so who is already in a medium level (I run 5 time/week...26mi)

Hi Guys, I had a calf strain about a month ago doing 800m intervals, and am worried to get back into the faster stuff. (I'm 47) plan to run a sub 20 5k this year, and a 1:40 half marathon so some advice on strengthening my calves would be appreciated. A

[@TheRunExperience]

Hey Arran! Here are a few videos that might help you out! What Makes Your Calves Sore While Running - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYWUkqWLqdCga6M Calf Health Pt 1, Tissue - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYeXiKljhsqjsNk Calf Health Pt 3, Warm Up - kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHm1dZdppL1sm5o

[@MichaelOlzinski]

ABSOLUTELY follow the ideas below... and I'll add this.... don't jump back into speed, do hill work first and make sure the calves handle that well. Once you prove you can handle some good hill work, then go with the speed after.

[@hi5_centipedes874]

What incline level on the treadmill best replicates an average hill? I live in an area that is totally flat for miles and have to rely on the treadmill for inclines.

[@MichaelOlzinski]

YES great question.... I would advise working between 3-5% depending on how you feel and how hard the day is. But yes, I actually run a lot of intervals on 3.5%, its still a hill, but you can work on running pretty hard on it.

[@brompo]

Thanks for the advice, right now working on incorporating hill runs On hill runs, how do you handle the decending part? Is it part of the workout as well, or the workout is mainly when you are running uphill?

[@adamdownie]

I'd recommend taking the descending easy to recover and reduce the risk of injury

[@MichaelOlzinski]

Absolutely.... its a HUGE part of the workout. That is the reality of racing.... and learning to keep footspeed and use the downhillls to truly move fast, while recovering your physiology, is HIGHLY important.

Thanks

[@UltamateSacrifice]

Meanwhile I'm still working on my 2miles :)

[@aniketsuryawanshi6205]

Hi coach I am from India &I am big fan of you ,please how to run 1600meter in 5minitai running takaineyeak video create i request of you

[@jareddietrich2345]

What the fuck...it’s ALL about the miles. There is nothing more important than the number of miles run during a marathon train up. Don’t try to fancy talk around it...and there are several takes on a tempo run, if you’re a coach you should share that. Alright kids (hands clasped together)?

[@mtnriffraff68]

Very good advice, thanks.
