TRAINING TILT PLATFORM FOR EVERYONE The Training Tilt app is such a fantastic tool for remote trainers that Dave's is now including the app as an option for anyone in the program as another training resource.

The Dave's REMOTE TRAINERS will receive weekly coaching advice and encouragement from Dave's Training Team through the Training Tilt Platform.

This plan gradually increases your mileage and helps you adapt to longer runs step by step, so you're prepared to handle the half-marathon or 5K on race day. There is also a run-walk option for the beginner half-marathon training plan with a dedicated run-walk coach.
