Olympian-Designed Advanced Training Plan to Take You From 1:32–1:38 → 1:29:xx
Cracking 1 hour 30 minutes in the half marathon requires a precise balance of endurance, threshold strength, leg speed, and disciplined tapering. It’s not just about mileage — it’s about smart structure.
This 12-week Sub-1:30 program, designed by Olympic marathon runner Ilya Tyapkin, gives you an elite-level system that blends tempos, race-pace work, long runs, intervals, and sharpening sessions—so you arrive on race day primed to sustain ~4:16/km (6:52/mi) for 21.1 km.
