Training

We recommend the Hal Higdon half marathon 12-week training program to help you prepare for the half marathon. The program consists of running 3-4 times a week (including one long run and one short run per week) and then cardio cross-training, strength training, and improving flexibility and core strength on rest days.

Cardio Cross-Training

During the 12-week training program, it is highly recommended that you incorporate various forms of cross-training to prevent injury, increase stability and endurance, build up important muscle groups in your upper body, lower body, and core, and improve dynamic flexibility and speed.

There are many ways that CRS can help you get ready for LEAD Strong.  If you are a TU Student/Faculty/Staff member, come to one of our free Group Ex classes, sign up for Personal Training sessions, work up a sweat in the Fitness Center, and cool off in Burdick Pool during Lap Swim hours.  Just bring your Towson University OneCard to Burdick Hall!
