It was Run To The Beat, way back in 2013. At that point, I was pretty new to running. <\/p>\n<p>The furthest I\u2019d ever run was 10km, and the thought of running anything like a marathon or even half the distance of a full marathon hadn\u2019t entered my mind. But when the opportunity came up to take part in this event \u2013 with only a few weeks notice \u2013 I figured I\u2019d go for it.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I set myself a goal finishing time of 2hours 30 minutes \u2013 which is a pace of just over 7kmph at a time I was running around 6kmph \u2013 6:30kmph comfortably, albeit at shorter and different distances. <\/p>\n<p>Needless to say, I managed to complete my first race in around 2:26 (I\u2019m sure it\u2019s recorded on the blog somewhere) before working towards my fastest half (to date) at Brighton Half Marathon which was just over the 2-hour mark when I was aiming for sub 2:20!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>So, over the years, I\u2019ve written various iterations of this post as I learnt from each half marathon that I completed. One thing that always remains true though: no matter which race you choose to run, these 10 tips for running a half marathon\u00a0will always be valid. \u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the Average Half Marathon Time?<\/h2>\n<p>Before we dive into the tips, let\u2019s talk about what is the average half marathon time. For beginner runners, a common goal is simply to cross the finish line, which typically takes between 2 hours 10 minutes and 2 hours 30 minutes. <\/p>\n<p>More seasoned runners or those who undertake specific, proper training might aim for a time under 2 hours, while elite runners can complete the race in under 1 hour 10 minutes. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Your fitness level and experience level will determine your time, but it\u2019s important to set realistic goals that match your training. Whether you\u2019re aiming for a good time or simply hoping to finish strong, knowing the average finish time can help you gauge your progress. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re training for your first half marathon, having the right gear is key. Check out the the selection of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.adidas.co.uk\/women-running-shoes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"3776\">womens running trainers<\/a>\u00a0from adidas to keep your feet comfortable and supported throughout your training runs. But we\u2019ll cover kit specifically in my tips below.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Here is a half marathon pace chart, showing the required pace per mile and kilometre for finish times ranging from 1:30 to 3:00, in 5-minute intervals:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table class=\"has-fixed-layout\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Finish Time (hh:mm)<\/th>\n<th>Pace per Mile (mm:ss)<\/th>\n<th>Pace per Km (mm:ss)<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>1:30<\/td>\n<td>6:52<\/td>\n<td>4:15<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1:35<\/td>\n<td>7:15<\/td>\n<td>4:30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1:40<\/td>\n<td>7:38<\/td>\n<td>4:44<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1:45<\/td>\n<td>8:00<\/td>\n<td>4:58<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1:50<\/td>\n<td>8:23<\/td>\n<td>5:12<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1:55<\/td>\n<td>8:46<\/td>\n<td>5:27<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2:00<\/td>\n<td>9:09<\/td>\n<td>5:41<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2:05<\/td>\n<td>9:32<\/td>\n<td>5:55<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2:10<\/td>\n<td>9:55<\/td>\n<td>6:09<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2:15<\/td>\n<td>10:18<\/td>\n<td>6:23<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2:20<\/td>\n<td>10:41<\/td>\n<td>6:38<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2:25<\/td>\n<td>11:04<\/td>\n<td>6:52<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2:30<\/td>\n<td>11:27<\/td>\n<td>7:06<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2:35<\/td>\n<td>11:49<\/td>\n<td>7:20<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2:40<\/td>\n<td>12:12<\/td>\n<td>7:34<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2:45<\/td>\n<td>12:35<\/td>\n<td>7:49<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2:50<\/td>\n<td>12:58<\/td>\n<td>8:03<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2:55<\/td>\n<td>13:21<\/td>\n<td>8:17<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>3:00<\/td>\n<td>13:44<\/td>\n<td>8:31<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Top 10 Half Marathon Tips\u00a0<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"2160\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18582 perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-1440x2160.jpeg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-1440x2160.jpeg 1440w, https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-800x1200.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-300x450.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-1024x1536.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-1365x2048.jpeg 1365w, https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-150x225.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-scaled.jpeg 1707w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"2160\" src=\"https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-1440x2160.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18582\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-1440x2160.jpeg 1440w, https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-800x1200.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-300x450.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-1024x1536.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-1365x2048.jpeg 1365w, https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-150x225.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/River-Ness-10k-Finish-Line-Elle-scaled.jpeg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\"\/><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Fail to Prepare, Prepare to Fail.<\/h3>\n<p>i feel it goes without saying, but it\u2019s important to align your expectations with the training you put in.\u00a0For my first Half Marathon, I only had four weeks to train. In that time, I did minimal running, so my only goal was to finish the race using the base\u00a0fitness level I already had and establish a personal record for the future. \u00a0<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2.\u00a0Pack Your Race Day Bag Before The Morning Of The Race. <\/h3>\n<p>This is one of the best ways to reduce stress on race day. Include essentials like a change of clothes for after the race, snacks, water, race gels, and a towel. You\u2019ll want to be prepared for anything, including unpredictable weather conditions! \u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-B_jesvYmvqg\/VPMb1kznx5I\/AAAAAAAAHxU\/o9qsSyKB-p0\/s1600\/IMG_5347.JPG\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"3777\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-B_jesvYmvqg\/VPMb1kznx5I\/AAAAAAAAHxU\/o9qsSyKB-p0\/s1600\/IMG_5347.JPG\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-B_jesvYmvqg\/VPMb1kznx5I\/AAAAAAAAHxU\/o9qsSyKB-p0\/s1600\/IMG_5347.JPG\" alt=\"\" class=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.\u00a0Choose A Race Outfit That Is Tried And Tested. <\/h3>\n<p>Race day is the worth possible time to be trying anything new. Your kit needs to be tried and tested so you know it\u2019s reliable and comfortable. Don\u2019t forget your race t-shirt, timing chip, race number, map and other bits and bobs that you have been sent in your race pack.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I now use a race belt which allows me to attach my number without it being secured to my top. In addition, I often wear a race vest which holds my nutrition, water and valuables so I don\u2019t need pockets or other bags.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Investing in good quality kit and running shoes during your training program will help you avoid discomfort and blisters on race day. \u00a0<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4.\u00a0Keep Off Your Feet<\/h3>\n<p>Come race day, you want your legs to be as fresh as possible so try to keep off your feet as much as possible the day before and race morning. A short shakeout run, tempo run or easy run the day before also works for some people; between 2 \u2013 5km.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Overall, rest is crucial but even more-so during your taper week leading up to race day.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>On the subject of feet, don\u2019t forget to cut your toe nails!<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5.\u00a0Eat 2 \u2013 4 Hours Before Your Start Time. <\/h3>\n<p>Fuel your body with something that\u2019s easy to digest, such as porridge, a bagel with peanut butter, or a banana. Sometimes\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/coffee-caffeine-fitness\/\" data-lasso-id=\"3778\">I add a coffee<\/a>\u00a0to a) get my bowels moving so I\u2019m more comfortable running and b) for the extra energy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Nutrition is one of the most important parts of your marathon training plan, as it affects your energy levels on the big day. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6.\u00a0Hydration Is Key <\/h3>\n<p>My best advice is to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.keepitsimpelle.com\/your-race-day-preparation-guide\/\" data-lasso-id=\"3780\">start hydrating early<\/a> \u2013 i.e especially in the days leading up to race day! Drink 16-24 oz (473-710 ml) of water one hour before the race, then stop. Try to empty your bladder as much as possible before the race starts to avoid needing the loo during the run.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>During the race, drink small amounts regularly (10 minutes before you start and every 20 minutes there after is a good goal) and use the aid stations to top up your hydration. This is especially important for longer distances like the half-marathon distance. \u00a0<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7.\u00a0Dress For The Conditions<\/h3>\n<p>If it\u2019s cold, wear layers or bring disposable clothes to the starting line. If it rains, a bin liner can keep you dry before the race begins. Always check the forecast so you\u2019re ready for any weather conditions. \u00a0<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get Your Free Race Prep Download Here:<\/h4>\n<style
