Planning for beginner half marathon training begins with a goal in mind. A lot of people have a goal to run a half-marathon – yet, few people convert the goal to truth by running their first race.
Planning should start with a desire to run the first half marathon and a devotion to dedicate time for training. Both these variables are quite important for running the first race to accomplish the aim,.
Planning is dependent upon the amount of your prior jogging/running experience. If you’ve got no running experience, then it is crucial that you start training for a 5K race first and gradually progress to build up your base that is running. If you are at a level where you are able to run a 5K /10K, then you’ve got the running base needed to start the training for the half-marathon.
In order to begin, make a list of races in your neighborhood and assess the reviews for the races. Most likely, you are going to enjoy a couple of races from your list. Depending on other variables like the time of the year the race is held, the time you need for training etc. you can narrow down the list and select a race to run. This will be your first half-marathon – so it’s crucial that you decide the race carefully.
You want to pick a course that’s not too challenging and run during a time of year when the weather is not too cold or hot. You want to know what to expect for your first half marathon.
Once there is a race chosen, make a program to dedicate a predetermined period of time for training. This will leave aside a predetermined time for training on a daily and weekly basis. Having made a commitment when it comes to both these variables, you are now prepared to start training for your first race.
As a further measure, registering for obligation is indicated by the race and blocking the training time in your calendar indicates desire to seriously train for the race. Performing both these measures suggests you are prepared to start the training to accomplish your aim of running your first half-marathon.
