1/2 Marathon for the Beginner!

I just completed my first 1/2 Marathon and you can't imagine the learning curve that came with it!

Here's everything you need from beginning to end in one place.

Now, all you need is the courage to start.

I used Jeff Galloway's Training Schedule he created for www.RunDisney.com

They are 21 weeks long and VERY easy to follow, even for beginners

1/2 Marathon Training Schedule

Everything you need to know about carb loading properly RIGHT HERE!

Don't make the mistake by eating one large spaghetti meal the night before . . . you WILL regret it.

Loading properly will guarantee enough glycogen stores to get you to the finish line.
