How do i prepare for half marathon running?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
THIS is: A complicated issue and beyond the "mission" of this website. A trainer would be best and in advance the training is much the same for a half distance run as a full distance run......Good Luck and Hope this helps! Dr Z
