Half Marathon Training Program

Presented by ASICS 

Training for a big race takes more than logging miles. It takes a smart plan, the right support and people who know how to help you run steady through the tough weeks and the good ones too. 

That’s what you’ll find in Fleet Feet’s Half Marathon Training Program in partnership with ASICS. 

With two supported workouts each week, beginner and intermediate training tiers and running coaches who bring real expertise to every step, you’ll have what you need to train with purpose and finish with confidence. 

This isn’t just about running a half marathon. It’s about discovering what you’re capable of with the right people beside you every step of the way. Decide which program is best for you by using the guide below:

• For the Half Marathon (13.1 miles) and 10 Miler: you should be able to run/walk 5 miles comfortably
• For the 10k (6.2 miles): you should be able to run/walk 2 miles comfortably
