I was also looking at your profile... With your current half PR, you would make IMPRESSIVE gain with only easy runs. Seriously, work on your base and endurance. Forget about intervals and hills and speedwork and tempo. Go out at an easy pace, then slow down a bit more. You should finish your long with the feeling that you…

This is way too complicated for someone who is still doing run/walk intervals. I can't even understand half of this. I would start with a Hal Hidgeon half plan. It will get you to where you want to be for your first half. I wouldn't worry about HR zones, and hills and speedwork until you are running at least 30mpw. Easy…

Wow, I think you have a solid background. If you are not ready, I sure as hell am not and I'm already signed up for a technical trail 50K in September... :#

I've run all summer with PF. It healed. Back in January it came back... In my other foot. I saw a podiatrist and "fixed" the cause but it's not easy to get rid of when it's there. Hurts like hell one day, then it's good the next. Other than that, I get a tight calf or/and sore achille once in a while but it usually goes…

Yes. Slow down. If you don't, I swear that you'll find yourself in the same spot next week... :/

Excellent and accurate information. My current easy runs are done 1:30min slower per mile than my marathon pace (MP). If you are running every daily run faster than your MP, that pace isn't your MP. It's kind of like saying you ran 10K at your 5K pace... 80% of your weekly running should be done at a pace that feels like…

This. I chose to use the info my treadmill is giving me since it's easier to see/deal with than a watch.
-
+1 to this. I've been there. It's not a good place to be.

If C25K isn't working for you I have no idea what would work... Honestly, there isn't anything easier or more gradual than C25K... Good luck!

I have no real advices as I'm also hoping to BQ in May (I need a 9 min PR) and until then I won't know if what I'm doing is right... But I ran a 3:44 full 6 months after running a 1:45 half so I think you definitely can do it since your half PR is faster than mine. I would think your best bet is to build your mileage up…

Losing weight is 100% related to food intake. Exercising can help you by allowing you to eat a bit more. You need to find something you love to do :)

I've been running on the treadmill all winter (343mi out of my 458mi total for 2015 were on the treadmill) and every time I run outside it feels SO MUCH EASIER! Reading all of your comments, I think I might be the odd one? And I don't run with any incline on my treadmill either since apparently it doesn't make a difference…

Yeah... Some say you shouldn't even run over 3:00 even if it's mean a 16mi long run and not getting a 20miler in. For the elites, 3:00 means they are getting 22-24 miles training runs. I'm also running 20mi tomorrow... My longest run since October. It should take me exactly 3:00. My training plan has me running 4x 20mi…
-
I totally disagree. There is a big difference in running 6.2 miles and running 13.1 miles. You are in for one miserable experience if you don't ever train over 10km ...
-
Yes... Distance first. You need to work on your endurance, not speed at this point. Also, speed will come all by itself the more you run.
