Training Plans

Train with EY for the Waterside Half Marathon

Whether you’re chasing a personal best or taking on your very first race, we know many of you take your training seriously and it’s brilliant to see so many out on the roads, greenways, paths and parks week after week.

With EY now proudly supporting this year’s Waterside Half, we’re excited to launch the official EY 12-Week Training Plan. This is designed to help runners of all levels arrive at the start line feeling confident and ready.

For those training with a running club or group, you’re likely already logging the miles and building toward a strong race-day performance. However, we also know not everyone has access to regular training support and that’s where this plan comes in.

We’ve adapted our Beginner Half Marathon and 3-Person Relay Training Schedules to guide you through the final stretch to race day on 7th September. These are flexible plans - if you already have a base level of fitness, you might find jumping in at Week 3 or 4 works best for you. Just listen to your body, and as always, if you’ve not been exercising regularly, please check in with your GP before starting any new training programme.
