I'm working up to doing a half marathon within 6months and a full within a year. A year ago I wasn't able to run a full mile, a month ago I ran my, first ever, 5k in 31:04. I plan on working up towards a half by doing the following:

two 5k's a week + 1 hill run for a couple of months and then

3-4 5k's a week for a couple of months and then

one 10k + two 5k's a week for a couple of months and then

two 10k's a week and then

etc. etc. just keep stepping it up, it's all about working on that stamina for me.

When I trained for my first half we were doing a plan that added 10% total millage a week. What most people did with that is kept their same shorter miles through the week and added the extra 10% onto the one long run on the weekend.

Keep up the good work, you'll get to your half in no time.
