I have a half marathon on 19th September. My pb is 1:24:35.
Last night I did a 5k in 18:37, exactly the same time I did it in last year. I havent had a pb since I did the same half marathon last year.So somethings going wrong somewhere. I think the only postive thing I have going about getting a pb, was last year I went out too fast.
Anyway I'd be interested in any suggestions of how I can make the most of the last weeks.
Thanks
Ian
stop worrying about a 5K PR....
Good point.
I haven't done alot of speedwork, mainly tempo work which should help more in the half marathon.
Make sure you run the first 2 miles at about 6:50-7:00 pace. You will have plenty of timeto run fast the last half of the race.
Mr Mountain,
I can't see how running the first two miles at 6.50 - 7.00/mile pace would benefit me in trying to get a new at sub 1:24:35.
Any advice on what I can do for the last two weeks?
