4 Months To Go: Avoid These Sub-1:30 Half Marathon Mistakes
1️⃣ Consistency Creates Performance 🎯
It might sound simple, but it’s true: consistency matters more than occasional breakthrough sessions. Stringing together quality weeks of training builds deeper endurance, higher resilience, and confidence — without overloading your body.
✔️Runna’s structured training balances workload and recovery so you can keep showing up, week after week, and keep progressing.
2️⃣ Getting the Easy Runs Wrong 🤔
When aiming for sub-1:30, it’s easy to accidentally run too fast on days meant for recovery. Easy runs allow you to absorb the harder work — keeping them genuinely easy improves aerobic endurance and is essential for performing in your workouts.
✔️Runna’s personalised pacing insights guide your effort for every session so you get the proper benefits every time. No wasted miles.
3️⃣ Leaving Goal Pace Until Race Day ⚡️
Sub-1:30 requires the right kind of fast. True race-pace confidence comes from threshold and tempo work that builds the adaptations needed to hold pace for all 13.1 miles.
✔️Runna’s half marathon-specific sessions are paced precisely to hit the right zones, so goal pace feels natural on race day.
