The Hansons-Brooks Distance Project has been helping good, but not star runners, compete with the best athletes in the world using unique and innovative training methods.
More importantly, they’ve shared these methods to help runners like you achieve extraordinary results.
The Hansons approach to marathon training, specifically the long run, has revolutionized the way age-group, Boston-qualifiers and beginners alike prepare for the marathon.
Now, Luke Humphrey, the author of the ground-breaking book The Hansons Marathon Method, is back with a fresh and innovative approach to training for the half marathon.
A few of the topics that Luke and I discussed included:
- Specific energy system differences in training for the half versus the full marathon
- How training for a half marathon can make training for the full distance seem more manageable
- How to run speed, strength, and tempo workouts and how they are incorporated into the training schedules
- How to adjust the schedule if you can’t handle all 3 workouts in 1 week
- The importance of a training segment for shorter races and how it can help your marathon training
We’d like to thank Luke for his time and wish him the best of luck both with his own training and with his coaching.
