This is an unofficial training schedule designed by Wendy Bumgardner for walkers who intend to do back-to-back half-marathons.
Half-Marathon Training Course Prerequisites: • Able to walk comfortably for 4 miles on your long day and for 3 miles 3 days a week.• Able to commit to one long day per week, from 2 - 5 hours. Weekly Schedule
• Tuesday, Thursday:
walk 3-4 miles. • You may vary the exact days of the week, but generally give a day off between each walking day. • This schedule varies mileage-building weeks with base mileage weeks, to allow a steady build-up of mileage with less risk of injury. • Already walking longer mileage? Jump into the schedule where your longer days are now.
