It’s also a doable goal for almost everyone, given the right circumstances and build-up. In this series, I’ll talk you through the process...

The half marathon suffers from its label as half. Completing this distance is an accomplishment belittled by the name of the race—it feels like a whole adventure, not half of anything. At the same time, this is a distance that most runners can accomplish without undue trouble. You—yes, you—can probably finish a half feeling good...

Maybe you used to run but got out of the habit when life got in the way. Maybe you’re happy with your current gym routine and the occasional jog.
