| Running a half-marathon is an excellent goal after running a 5k and a 10k. Don't look at it to win, but to stay motivated and committed to your running plan and staying healthy. A half-marathon is 13.1 miles and is a great way to prepare for running a full marathon. Get connected with a local running store and/or magazine for dates and registration information. Below is a 10-week training schedule to get you ready for the half-marathon.
