How far into training are you? My last marathon cycle had a run about 2 months out that was 3 mile warm up + 10 at marathon pace + 3 mile cool down and I used a half to do the workout with a few miles before and after. If you are going to try to do an equivalent pace I use the VDOT calculator and would shoot for 7:43 pace.QOTD: So I have question. Lets say your goal marathon pace is a 8:00 min/mi. You have a half marathon coming up in a few weeks and want to see if fitness wise you are on pace to be able to run the marathon goal... What should be the half marathon goal pace?
ATTQOTD: From the charts I have seen online, it looks like 7:40 pace is a equivalent pace for a half to a 8:00 pace for a full. Ive also read 15-30 seconds faster. I dont know the actual answer, but curious as to what yall think.
