I haven’t done any long distance before but am thinking of training for the up coming event. As a novice in this event, I am just looking to finish the event. Would the above mentioned programme be suitable le for me??

Good-day,

I started training for my 4th two oceans half marathon in December.
I have done my long runs,Hill repeats and speed sessions including gym work for strengthening exercises using dumbbells(Arms,Core,squats and walking lunges and chest)

I have had 2 bouts of flu within a short space of time and currently still recovering since last week Tuesday(about 10 days).
I am taking Viral Ease,Nasal spray and curonse c and do not want to risk my condition worsening
as I am 60 years old(been running for over 35 years.Have done 4 Comrades,7 Two oceans Ultras.
& will be running my 4th Two oceans Half Marathon)

When should I resume training I what last minute program do you recommend and do I continue
with supplementation with immune booster etc.

Will appreciate your kind assistance as your advise will be welcomed.

Kind regards
Tyrone

I came here to get advice but must take issue with the recommended program. I did a fast (for me) 16 k run 8 days before my last half marathon and it killed my event, the efforts for the 16 k would have been better spent on race day.

Is it possible to log an ok time? what you guys think?
