1/2 Marathon or Marathon Runners

geeksrule

Hello friends,

I am a "newish" runner. I have worked up to 10km now and am dreaming of running a 1/2 marathon (so hoping to do the Disney Princess 1/2 in 2013).

My question is what program did you use for training? I have done C25K and B210K - and was looking at Hal Higdon's 1/2 marathon app.

Any suggestions or advice to help me reach my goal would be appreciated!!!

I feel like Hal Higdon's programs are a little more rigorous for beginning marathoners (at least for me; I'm a kind of "lazy" runner, though I'm not running AT ALL this month because I have had lingering bronchitis). Anyway. I used the training plan in John Bingham's "Marathoning for Mortals" during my first marathon, but switched to Jeff Galloway's plan because I like being only committed to running 3X per week.
