  • Im back training with the Runna app, this time my target is the Great North Run half marathon 2024, and this training plan is a bit different!
    Ive optioned to test out the 16-week half marathon training plan provided by the Runna App, a longer plan to the traditional 12-week plan associated with the half marathon distance, and I cant wait to see if the extra 4 weeks of traniing can guide me to a half marathon PB.
    Ive trained with Runna before, for the following 2 races:
    Valencia Half Marathon - • Can The Runna App Coac...
    London Marathon 2024 - • 16-Week Runna App Mara...
    And both times I've managed to set PBs in training, so im back committing to the 16 week half marathon plan to see how it compares to the standard 12-week Runna half marathon plan and seeing how it impacts by training and results.
    Make sure you follow along to see how I get on!

      Awesome stuff, it’s a great race. I love it, the support is fantastic. So long as we get the weather, as it’s a bit crappy if wet, then it’s a cracking day. Just plan where you are staying and if staying near the start be prepared for a stupidly busy metro. We usually stick around for 3-4 hours after the race and the stations are still pretty busy!

      @@scemat Honestly you'll love it. I keep going back year after year because its so good. last year we had biblical weather after the finish, check out my video. It was crazy. There is a great finishers area, big huge bar everyones stays at if the weather is good. We'll be there, so would be good to meet up and talk running.
