8 Week Half-Marathon Training Schedule

Health & Wellness

I am training for my first half-marathon, and can't wait to get it over with! I currently weigh 240 pounds and am really out of shape. The half-marathon is 8 weeks away and here I am, starting a training program. My goal is to do a mixture of walking and jogging, just so I can finish in under 4 hours. I'm not in it to race, or win a medal, or whatever, just to FINISH the half-marathon. I'd love it if you trained with me! Keep in mind that training outside is ideal, as training on a treadmill is WAY TOO EASY! :) See you at the Finish Line!
