Choosing an event
If this is your first race, pick one close to home with a flat course and a start time that gives you a calm morning. A 5K or 10K needs only a few weeks of regular running; a half marathon needs about three months; a marathon needs four months and a year or so of running behind you. Our training plans page will tell you which plan fits.
