A friend of mine and I have decided to run a local 1/2 marathon in November. It will be her first 1/2 marathon so I am trying to help her out with the training. I am NOT a coach, just a friend with a little bit more experience than she has at running endurance races, so I came up with this 12 week 1/2 marathon training program (OK, so I modified it from one I found online to suit our needs)
I appreciate any advice/criticism/critiques from any more experience than I:
