Half Marathon Strength

10 weeks

About this plan

A 10-week strength program designed by Coach Ava Fagin to go alongside your half marathon training. Three sessions a week build the strength, stability and resilience that keep you running well all the way to race day.

The program builds in three phases:

  • Weeks 1–3: strength endurance, base strength, and mobility and stability
  • Weeks 4–6: single-leg strength, heavier base strength, and hip and core control
  • Weeks 7–10: stability strength, power and runner's core, easing off for race weekend

Every session starts with a dynamic warm-up. Do it at home with light, medium and heavy dumbbells, or in a gym.
