Some fantastic, practical advice. Most videos are far too complicated and discourage us from even trying for that distance. It takes months to build up your distances. I’ve managed to run a number of half marathons now. Never thought it was possible and especially only since I’ve turned 50. My next goal is to aim for a full marathon. Don’t know how long it will take but I’ll get there.

Participated in the Belgrade Marathon this past weekend. My first one ever and keep in mind I may not be the one to give out advice, but one conclusion i can take from it is STAY ON TOP OF YOUR NUTRITION. Coming from a backround of doing mainly half distance triathlons,and half marathons I didn’t think it would be a much of a problem. I WAS SO WRONG. It started off great, I came in at half mark point at around 1h20mins having only had about 2 gels (~55g of carbs) and things were going perfectly according to my pacing plan, then at around km 27/8 it hit me like a brick wall. It was hell from then on and i finished with a final time of 3h4mins and 31sec. Had I payed more attention to my nutrition i could have finished in under 2h50 for certain.Dont neglect or underestimate how many calories your body need to function properly whilst running 42km

There are take-outs even for me, despite the the fact that I am only planning a half in September. My intermediate scheduled goals is a 10k PB in July. In terms of volume, I find it reassuring. I am at 25-30 (sometimes 35) k per week. If 50 is enough for a full, increasing to 35-40 should be realistic enough and good for a half even though some web-sites consider this too little. As for the long run, it's my understanding that for a half marathon, unlike for a marathon, going the full distance during long runs is actually recommended, but I have a few months to settle that debate as my long runs are currently in the 10k range.
@Aeronwor Жыл бұрын
If you want to complete the half, then you do not necessarily need to run the full distance in training, if you want to go for a specific time, or you want to run it as part of a 70.3 triathlon, then even running over distance during training can be advisable.

For any fellow beginner runners, I recommend the Hoka Rincon 3. They are the daily trainers that are super light and cushioned and they cheaper compared to other shoes. 124.99 usd but most of the time they are on sale for 99.99 usd. Only problem I have with them is they’re prone to wear and tear after roughly 200-250 mileage.

If possible, start training four weeks earlier, just do easy runs to get in some base mileage. Make it fun -- don't turn running into a job that you want to avoid. Do your long runs and if possible, get up to 22 miles. That last 10k feels as hard as the previous 10 miles, at least the first time.
