Assuming you can run 2 miles now at a nice easy pace (conversational), within 20 weeks you should be able to train up to being able to finish marathon distance at that nice easy pace (between 10 and 12 minute miles) or approximately 4 to 5 hours.
1 Your longest half marathon training run should be 3 or 4 weeks out from race day. 2  A top session could be 90 minutes â 2 hours with the last 30 mins at your target race pace. 3  Two weekends before, reduce this long run to 75-90 minutes.4  One week before itâs time to run just 60-70 minutes easy and enjoy the Sunday papers!
