🏃♂️ HM Training Journey 2026 – Week 6 / 16 Update
We are now at Week 6 of the 16-week Half Marathon training plan.
To be honest, the journey is not going exactly as planned.
The initial momentum after the Sub-60 10K slowly faded, and over the last 3 weeks !! I haven't been able to follow the training plan as consistently as I would have liked. Between work, travel, routine changes, and a few other priorities, the HM preparation has not received the same attention that the 10K training block received.
However, instead of worrying about the missed sessions, I have decided to focus on one thing:
👉 Consistency from this week onwards.
Sometimes the goal is not to have a perfect training plan. The goal is to get back on track.
📊 Current Status
Week 6 of 16 completed
Training not fully aligned with the plan
Long runs need more consistency
Strength training needs to be restarted regularly
Nutrition continues to be the biggest challenge
The positive side is that I still have enough time to build towards the goal if I stay disciplined over the coming weeks.
🎯 Goal Remains the Same
The target is still:
Sub-2 Half Marathon
🏃 21.1 KM in under 120 minutes
The timeline may have become tighter, but the goal remains unchanged.
🧠 Key Takeaway
The biggest lesson from the 10K journey was:
"It's okay to sink, but don't skip."
I need that reminder again.
Not every week will be perfect.
Not every run will feel great.
But showing up consistently will always beat waiting for the perfect week.
🔁 Looking Ahead
For the next weeks, the focus is simple:
Follow the training plan
Prioritize long runs
Restart strength workouts
Improve nutrition gradually
Stay injury-free
No shortcuts.
Just consistency.
Let's see where the next 1 weeks take me.
