The 16-Week Advanced Half Marathon training plan is a high volume plan, designed for runners who have ideally run a handful of half marathons and are looking to improve their time and performance. The plan begins with 5 running workouts/week (various speed, easy effort, long runs) and 1 strength workout + 1 recovery workout/week with an additional day of running beginning at week 10. From there, strength work becomes optional.
The plan peaks at a total weekly volume of ~42 miles and a long run of 12 miles before a 2 week taper where pre-hab work is added in.
Created by Elizabeth and Johnny who are both runners, running coaches, and strength & conditioning professionals, Go Far Running Company aims to to elevate your performance and prevent injuries through a combination of running workouts and strength training.
