A great session to practice your half marathon goal pace. Getting used to running your target pace in training is key to success on race day. You got this.

A good opportunity to really practice half marathon goal pace. Don’t worry if you’re not smashing the pace just yet as this is the first HM session in the plan.

PACE

Enjoyed this one. Finding my half-marathon pace took me a while but got there and felt good. My legs are feeling the increase in miles a bit and started runs a bit achy at times, but find I tend to get stronger after a few Kms. Would like to aim for as close to one hour for my 15km in 2 weeks….

These are good sessions, and I did look at the splits and you smashed it once you found the right pace. I think the fact you are feeling tired at the start is a sign we don’t want to push the training load anymore at the moment, but hopefully you’ll get over that phase and become stronger, so the legs feel fresher. I think somewhere around 62-65 mins depending on elevation and conditions is a realistic goal for the 15km. But we can certainly discuss nearer the time. Great work Ben. Another quality session banked.
