HALF MARATHON TRAINING
We'll be using modified versions of the Hal Higdon training programs for "Novice 1" and "Intermediate 2". The programs and guidance can be found at Higdon Half-Marathon training.
2026 Fall Half Marathon Training will start on Saturday June 20th. Normally, we meet at Lighthouse Beach at 7AM for a 7:15 start. Some weeks, we meet at an alternate location. Check your email for weekly updates.
We will do our weekly long runs with the SMLR group. The long run schedule is posted at the link (button) below
2026 Half marathon schedule
Our target race is the Fox Valley Half marathon on Sept 20th in St. Charles, but modify the schedule to suit your own target race.
An important part of our training is hydration and nutrition. Thanks to our fellow club members, we provide Gatorade and water along the route. Click the button below to volunteer to set up or take down our aid stations.
