This mornings workout called for a tempo run that I planned on breaking it up into 2 miles of marathon pace, 2 miles at 10 mile pace and 2 miles at marathon pace. I am not sure what my paces should be so I used the McMillan site.
Most of you probably already know about McMillan Running Calculator , if you don't check it out it's pretty cool!
If you have used it do you find it accurate? According to my 5k time I should be able to finish a marathon in 4:12. Even though the Colorado Marathon is considered a fast course, I am not sure that I can run it that fast. I know to a lot of people that is slow but not for me. Truly my big goal is to finish in less than 5 hours, I would LOVE to finish in less than 4:30.
Happy Friday everyone!!
I say train like you can and let the race day determine your pace. You might build more confidence running faster on your long runs.
ReplyDelete4:12 and 4:30 are both outstanding!!
