Half Marathon Training Plan for Over 50 Runners - 8, 12, 16 Weeks

Taren Gesell

If you’re over 50 years old and looking to train for a half marathon, you’re in the right place because this article will provide you with a half marathon training plan for over 50-year old runners.

We’ll provide options for runners who have 8, 12, or 16 weeks to train; the plans will help you avoid a lot of the potential disasters that beginner runners run into, and get you to the finish line. This training plan is designed for beginner runners so the training plan only has three runs per week and there is one strength workout every week.

This half marathon program is adapted from the training plans in our app that are written by coaches who know exactly what it takes for amateur age group runners to overcome challenges and reach their endurance race goals.

To start this plan confidently you should at least be able to run continuously for roughly an hour, otherwise you’ll be building up too quickly making an injury very likely. We’ll provide guidelines below on how long it takes to train for half marathons.

To train for this half marathon you can absolutely use the plan below. But if you really want a personalized program that’s designed for your abilities, your goals, and your schedule, you should check out the MOTTIV Training App. You can use it for free and it includes much more detailed and personalized plans than we can include in a blog post.

Training Tips to Successfully Train for a Half-Marathon

Before diving into the training schedule, we need to provide some half marathon training tips that will help you prepare for the race successfully, while avoiding a lot of the pitfalls runners often encounter.

How long is a half marathon?

First, we'll answer the question, “How many miles is a half marathon?” (or “How many kilometers is a half marathon?” for our metric friends around the world.) A half marathon is 13.1 miles or 21.1 kilometers.

What is an average half marathon finish time?

Enter your age and gender into the calculator below to find out what’s a good finish time in the half marathon for your age group.

How much do you need to train for a half marathon?

Knowing your weekly mileage (how many miles per week you should run in training) depends on your race distance, your athletic background, and your goals. It will take more training if you don’t have any endurance sports background and you want to win a marathon, than if you’re previously an elite endurance athlete who just wants to finish a 5k. Use the calculator below to get a sense of our recommended training time and the miles per week required to meet your goals.

What gear do you need to train for a half marathon?

There are two items we recommend all runners have to prepare for a half marathon: proper running shoes and a strap based heart rate monitor. Here’s a video about what to look for in running shoes, and here’s an article on everything you need to know about heart rate training zones and why we use them.

Heart Rate Training Zones for Running

Low intensity running should always be dictated by heart rate, not pace. This may mean your easy run training is quite slow, but that’s okay because it means you’re building endurance without a lot of physical stress. This is exactly what we want.Calculate your heart rate training zones with this calculator:

Half-Marathon Training Paces

Interval running workouts, also known as “speed work”, should be done using pace as opposed to heart rate. Pace is better than heart rate for intense runs because heart rate will lag by 60-120 seconds, while your running pace is instant. Use this calculator to calculate your run training pace per mile and kilometer.

Low Intensity Running

Our training plans are based on the pyramidal model (similar to polarized training, 80/20 running, and the Maffetone Method, but with improvements) where 70-80% of the training is done at low intensity Zone 1 and 2. Studies have shown that all athletes will perform better when performing the bulk of their training at a low intensity, it may be difficult to run in Zone 2, but you’ll perform much better if you train at a low intensity.

What to Eat When Training for a Half Marathon

What you eat before running, during your training runs, during your half marathon, and what you take for hydration is super important. The right fuel will make the workouts you perform so much more effective. Physiologists we’ve worked with believe that proper nutrition and hydration can generate the same race results with half the training. This article discusses what to eat before your runs, and this article explains what you should eat during running workouts and races.

BONUS: Check out the example workout below from a marathon training plan in our app. Every workout comes with personalized nutrition guidance for pre and during-workout nutrition to maximize the workout effectiveness.

Rest & Recovery

Your training plan will have complete rest days. Also, every third or fourth week will be a rest week with reduced training hours. It’s critical that you take these as days to truly rest and recover. If you do a pile of heavy yard work, or spend the recovery days on your feet walking around a mall, you won’t be resting and you won’t actually be improving from your training. Remember that

WORKOUTS + REST = PROGRESS

So, take rest days seriously to make sure you avoid overtraining. You need true rest to actually progress in your training.

Taper Week

The training plan will have a taper period in the week prior to race day where training volumes will be reduced by roughly 50-60%, though some intense bursts of speed will be maintained. This process will allow your body to flush out all the training fatigue, so you'll have lots of energy in your race. Take the taper process seriously, resting and sleeping as much as possible during taper week.

Half Marathon Race Pace

Workouts in a good training plan will have race pace intervals where you’ll develop the ability to run fast without getting tired. You can use the calculator below to calculate your approximate half marathon race pace for these intervals.

Half Marathon Training Plan for Over 50 Runners

Elite endurance coach, Joe Friel, outlined in his book Fast After 50 that older endurance athletes need to concentrate on two things as they get older:

Strength training: improve mobility and reduce muscle loss
Fast efforts: reduce the slowing down that occurs with age

We believe that all runners and triathletes should focus on these two training focuses. We’re all getting older, and we should all work to combat the effects of aging. But including these two training methods should be mandatory for older runners.

Benefits of Strength Training for Runners Over 50

Strength training is an incredibly important aspect of running for older runners. It has the following benefits that are particularly important for aging runners:

Benefit #1. Improved Mobility: As we age our muscles become stiffer and our joints lose range of motion. Performing strength training that’s designed to improve mobility (like the MOTTIV strength training) can combat these effects.
Benefit #2. Reduced Muscle Loss: muscle mass decreases by 3-8% per decade after the age of 30, and this decline speeds up after the age of 60. Including strength training into your run training plan can reduce, or even reverse, the effects muscle loss as we age.
Benefit #3. Improved Body Composition: related to Benefit #2, as we age many older runners find that it’s hard to keep fat stores low because there is less muscle mass so our base metabolic rate slows. Increased muscle mass will make it easier to keep body fat percentages low.
Benefit #4. Improved Hormone Profile: testosterone production slows as we age, this increases the likelihood of losing muscle mass, getting injured, and having a worse body composition. Strength training can improve hormone function slightly.
Benefit $5. Improved Running Economy: running economy is the amount of energy we need to use when we run. It’s been proven in dozens of studies that including strength training into your running program will reduce the amount of energy you need to run.

You can read all about strength training for runners in a complete blog post we wrote on the subject here.

Interval Running for Runners Over 50

When Joe Friel was researching his book Fast Over 50, he found that as runners age they tend to do less “speed work” with really intense interval running, or HIIT training.

Intense running intervals recruit a lot of muscle groups and require a high level of muscle activation. As runners age and lose muscle mass, it’s natural that these fast running intervals won’t feel very good; but that’s why they’re so important for older runners, if not more important for older runners to do than they are for younger athletes.

HIIT running workouts have similar effects on the body as strength training:

reduced muscle loss
improved metabolism
better body composition
improved hormone profile
improved running economy

Generally, intense running workouts will give older runners a little bit of extra “pep in their step”, getting their top end running speed back.

An intense running workout that recruits a lot of muscle fibers that we like to use in our training plans involve short hill repeats. The hill running workout looks like this:

Interval Run (50-70mins):

Warmup: 10-20min easy jogging Zone 2 Pace, include running drills, and 5x15sec strides Zone 4 Effort
Main Set: 12-15x1min hills Zone 5 Rate of Perceived Exertion, with an easy jog back down recovery. End when you feel like the next interval is the last one you could possibly do at the same pace
Cooldown: 10-20min easy jogging at Zone 2 pace

The caveat for older runners is that this type of intense workout creates a high likelihood of injury. So before jumping right into HIIT running workouts, older runners should start with very short intervals of 15-30 seconds and low intensity, then gradually build intensity each week making sure to listen to your body and back off if any running niggles (small injuries) start to emerge.

The Half Marathon Training Plan for Every Runner

Our run training plans are written by the excellent coaches at Run Free Training who know what it takes to help amateur athletes reach their goals. While the coaches are elite runners themselves, they have a great understanding of how to create training plans that are time-efficient and that help age group athletes over overcome the most common obstacles they'll face while getting ready for a race.

Beginner Workouts To Train For A Half Marathon

The Beginner Half Marathon Plan has runs on three days a week and maxes out at just under five hours of running per week.

Beginner runners are athletes who are one of the following:

Athletes who are tight on time and want a training plan with as little training as possible
Brand new athletes to running who want to ease into running slowly and safely for their first half marathon
Athletes who just want to finish the half marathon and don’t care about their finish time

Long Run (50mins - 2:15hrs)

The most important run in a run training plan is the weekly long run; most runners do this workout on the weekend when they have more time available. The long run is low intensity, building up gradually to eventually reach 2:15 hours for a half marathon training program. This run will build endurance and teach your body to produce the energy necessary to complete the distance of your race. You can learn all about the long run, how to execute it well, and what to eat before and during your sessions, in this article.

Here is an example of what a long run looks like from a half marathon training plan in our app:

Interval Run (40-80mins)

The second most important run in a run training plan is a weekly interval run, which we call the “Intense Run” in our training plans. Most athletes do this run on a weekday. The interval run will build your top end speed and be based on your run pace determined in the calculator above. You can learn all about how to execute an interval run, and what to eat before and during the workout to get the most out of it in this article here.

Here is an example of what an interval run looks like from a half marathon training plan in our app:

Tempo Run (45mins - 2hrs)

The weekly tempo run (which we call the Steady Run) bridges the gap between the endurance you build in the long run, and the speed you build in the interval run. It teaches you how to run fast without getting tired. Tempo runs have been proven to be a key component of a successful run training plan. You can learn all about tempo runs in this article here.

Here is an example of what a tempo run looks like from a half marathon training plan in our app:

Intermediate Half Marathon Training Program Workouts

The Intermediate Half Marathon Training Plan has four training days of running per week, one strength workout, and maxes out at roughly six hours of training per week.

Intermediate runners are athletes who are one of the following:

Athletes who have a good time availability, but don’t want to be training constantly
Athletes who have some background in exercise (maybe having run a 5k or 10k already) and can handle regular workouts
Athletes who want to finish the half marathon feeling like they pushed themselves

Strength Workout (30 minutes)

Cross-training with strength workouts is critical for athletes who don’t want to simply finish their race, but actually want to finish feeling strong. Strength training for runners has been proven to improve race performances, and athletes tend to feel much better physically. We believe so strongly in strength training that our app has 25 hours of guided strength workouts designed specifically for the needs and imbalances of endurance athletes. You can read all about strength training for runners here.

Here is an example of what a strength workout looks like from a half marathon training plan in our app:

Recovery Run (30-60mins)

A recovery run is a very low intensity run that’s meant to be a low stress way to add a little additional run fitness without risking overtraining or injury. Recovery runs have been proven to not actually enhance recovery, which is why we call them General Runs. You can read more about recovery runs in this article here.

Here is an example of what a recovery run looks like from a half marathon training plan in our app:

Advanced Half Marathon Training Plan Workouts

The Advanced Half Marathon Training Plan has four days per week of running, one strength workout, a mobility workout, and maxes out at just under seven hours of training per week.

Advanced runners are experienced runners who are one of the following:

Athletes who have very few limitations on their time availability
Athletes who have an extensive background in exercise and training
Experienced runners looking to finish as fast as they can possibly achieve

Mobility Workout (30 minutes)

Yoga for runners hasn’t been shown to improve race day performance, but most athletes feel much better if they include some light stretching at least once per week. Our app has nearly 15 hours of guided mobility workouts that are based on Hatha and Yin yoga which is slower and less intense than most yoga classes you’d do in a studio. You can read all about why we believe runners with more time available should include a mobility session in their training plan here.
