Been training at sub 7 min miles over two 5 mile intervals , hoping it will translate over full distance | | | |

Have you done competitive running before? I shaved nearly two minutes a mile off my training time purely because of the pace other runners were setting and the atmosphere of the crowd cheering us all on. | |

No, never done a race, well not this sort of distance | | | |

So much different to training on your own. So if you are running at a good pace in training then you'll smash it on the actual run. I did a trial half marathon on the Tuesday at over two hours and on the sunday did the same distance competitively at 1 hour 39 minutes. | |

I remember when I started training for the London marathon in 2009 I wanted to go sub 3 hours. I was on track too...I vividly remember the first few 3.5 mile runs I did round the village were sub 23 mins and I managed a 8 mile run in 55 mins, well below the sub 1 hour I was aiming for, this being a couple of months into training. I went out the Sunday after that to get a longer 'easy' run on a freezing February morning and ended up with an achilles injury and didn't run again until the actual day of the marathon...where I nailed a 4hr 24 min time lol!! I've not run more than 5 miles in the 9 years since and never will I suspect...(other than Tough Mudders, but they're not really the same) Going to have a go at the park run for the first time tomorrow...god knows how i'll get on, aiming for 29 mins just to keep up with my 11 year old daugter. | | | |

Cool well done, just difficult to know how to Pace it, want to get a sub 90 but don't want to blow out towards end | | | |
Anyone run a sub 90 minute half ? (n/t) on 15:29 - Aug 17 with 1819 views | BrianTablet | 1:22. Lots of miles in training. 1 x intervals 1 x tempo 1 x long run Some miles at race pace. Choose a flat course on a still, cool day. Don't eat /drink anything during the race. You don't need it. Take a risk. | |

It's very hard to not get carried away at the start and try to keep up with the elite athletes. If you do that you will be knackered after 5 miles. On the Glasgow half marathon there were pace runners carrying flags showing finishing times. Find the bloke with the 90 minute flag and keep him in sight all of the way. | |

Nice. I'd mix your speed work up with longer slower stuff. Throw some swimming in too. I've noticed a massive difference in the last 3 weeks by swimming 800m's 3 times a week. | |

That's a decent time on no training! Sub 3 hour marathon is a seriously hard goal. | | | |

I'm swimming and cyling more now, much easier on the body! How quick are you doing 800m? I'm usually just under 14 mins f/c snuck into 12's back in June, but that was a serious effort. Really enjoying it, but hate getting passed by the 10 year olds lol! | | | |

Yeah I do my slow 10 to 13 miles runs at about 8.30 pace, wish I had time for some cross training or weights but can only just about fit in the running | | | |
