Half marathon training has a lot of similarities to marathon training, because it’s still a highly aerobic event, says coach and Olympic Trials finalist Rebeka Stowe. This time, though, “you’re going to be doing a touch more lactate threshold work—working at 90 to 92 percent of your max effort—because it’s important to train your body to process waste efficiently,” she says. This plan is the perfect way to build aerobic capacity but still challenge yourself from a speed perspective. You’ll find the PDF below and a table below that for easy reading.
