Hello group!
I have been using myfitness pal for 3 months. Helps me stay on track. I am currently training for a 1/2 marathon. The Wahine Diva in Honolulu. Anyone have any tips? This is my first.

    I'm just starting training to get myself up to run a 5k, so I'm way farther behind than you. But good luck with your goals!

    Aloha....Train 5 to 10 miles for the most part and do 13 miles about 1 month prior to the race...build your confidence to finish...My Daughter is in the Air Force Stationed in Hawaii :-)

    Good Luck! :drinker:

    Aloha - I'm in the middle of training for my 4th half. The Surf City in Huntington Beach, CA. The Wahine is in April right? That should be a fantastic race. I should do that one year.

    My tips are follow a training program, make sure you have good shoes and work out your race day nutrition well before hand.

    I ran my first half in Maui back in September and beat my own training PR and beat my time again at the Dallas White Rock this month. I found this training plan from Runner World "First Half Marathon Training Plan". I think is a great trianing tool. Here's the website. Good luck and congratulation!
