Advanced Guide to your First Half Marathon

March 26, 2015 1 min read

For most, running a 5k or a 10k can be a challenge. However, there are the few of us that are always looking for more. For those, the half-marathon can be the final piece in the puzzle. There is a big difference in being conditioned to run a half-marathon and a full marathon. That is why the half-marathon is the most run race among women. It is at a level that is both challenging and achievable for most with adequate training. Below is a chart that will get you from the 10k level to the half-marathon. A good friend of mine and ultra-runner Ashley Shih (Instagram: @shihruns) once told me that if you can run 1/2 the distance of the race you are looking to enter, then you can run the whole thing! That really stuck with me and I was able to complete my first 1/2 marathon in February of 2014. Since then, I have run multiple races and am now working on running my first marathon in November along with expanding my half-marathon races to the Disney Princess Half-Marathon! (You can register for the 2016 race here) Chart: P= Pace Run (Run this day at the pace you would like to finish the 1/2 marathon in)

My first 1/2 marathon was the Scenic City Half Marathon in Chattanooga, TN.

Shipping & Delivery

Due to COVID-19, shipping systems the world over are experiencing abnormal delays. There is an enormous demand on postal and delivery services as online shopping has skyrocketed, due to store closures and stay-at-home mandates. This is an unprecedented situation, and we are working around the clock to fulfill your orders as quickly as possible. To be clear, we are filling orders in 2-3 days, and we are shipping immediately after that. Once shipped, our shipping partner, UPS, will get your order out to you as quickly as possible. Thanks for your support and understanding.

Are you in Canada? Specifically, are you outside of a metropolitan centre? We need to alert you to a disruption in shipping due to COVID-19. Our preferred shipping provider, UPS, has informed us that they cannot guarantee express shipping for many locations. We have also seen that packages delivered to Toronto, Ottawa, Vancouver, etc, are not waylaid, but packages delivered to areas just outside of these cities are being held in transit for days or even weeks. UPS has discontinued their guarantee of 1-4 day delivery, which you can read more about here. Therefore, we can guarantee early fulfillment but not early delivery of our goods from our warehouse to your door at this time.

We want you to start your fitness journey with us as quickly as possible, that’s why we send every package to the USA & Canada via expedited or standard shipping with our partners at UPS. Once your order is received and processed, it typically takes 2-4 days to get to you once it leaves our warehouse. That’s our commitment and we stand by it.

We ship within Canada and the United States via UPS with Standard & Expedited shipping (whichever is faster)

For locations outside of the US and Canada, we ship using FedEx International (EUROPE and Other Nations), which is usually in transit for 7-10 business days, depending on location.

We ship all of our physical products with UPS, from our warehouse location in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. Delays caused due to custom withholds are not included in these estimated delivery times.

Returns & Exchanges

BodyRock Equipment

We offer a 30-day return policy, as long as: it is not more than 30 days past the date of delivery; and your item is in its original condition and packaging with the original order number. Refunds will be issued when the equipment is received back to the BodyRock warehouse, minus the original cost of shipping, and the customer is responsible for the costs of return shipping. To request a refund on physical product purchases, please contact us.

Digital Products

We cannot issue refunds on digital goods such as e-books or videos, as these are non-tangible goods that are irrevocable once the order is placed.

Clothing

All of the BodyRock clothing is made to order and so is final sale. If you have any questions about sizing prior to placing your order, please contact us.
