Hello everyone, new guy here.
I'm not new to the running game, but I'm needing a bit of advice from the more experienced.
I currently run anywhere between 5-12k 3 or 4 times a week. This is a routine that I've taken up after running a marathon in October 2012 and it's getting a bit stagnant for me.. even though i try to mix it up and keep my body guessing with cross training and yoga.
Point is.. I'm thinking of entering in a Half Marathon series which begins on the 4th May. With my current activity level, is there an intermediate/advanced type schedule anyone can recommend to me (about 6-7 weeks) to get myself ready for it in under 2 hours? I'm fairly confident I could adapt the middle bits of my marathon training schedule but being that I'll be entering in a 5 half marathon series taking place about 1 per month beginning with may, I'll also need to sustain the distances.

Thank you!
