Could use some training advice for a half marathon.

There are a TON of programs out there. They all do something right and they all do something wrong. My only advice - since you are novice runner - is to be very careful increasing mileage. No more than 10% per week. IMHO, even that is pushing it.

Ok...so 2 pieces of advice. Try to get outside for at least half your runs. Treadmill vs real road is a lot different.
