From Christine Luff, your Guide to Running & Jogging
The half marathon distance (13.1 miles) is becoming a more and more popular race among runners and run/walkers. Many people like that the distance presents a serious challenge, but the training doesn't take as much of a toll on your body and is not as time-consuming as training for a marathon. This week I have tips for those of you who are hoping to take on a half marathon in the near future.
