February 7, 2024
watch on youtubeLast year, I focused on building my mileage and bringing my half marathon time down from 1:24 to 1:19. This video was requested by our friend Jeron who's on his own mission to crack 1:20 in the half in 2024. He asked me to share how I structured my weeks last year and the main workouts I did to build fitness. Here are the 5 key workouts I used consistently throughout the year to improve my running.
