Consider two different runners training for a Half Marathon, doing two different workouts, on similar efforts, like 85-90%. One runs 12k in 42:30, the other runs 25k in 1h34:30. Who's in better shape?

5:42 pace for 7.5 mi vs 6:04 pace for 15 mi. I would say the 15 miler is more impressive, but you definitely want to be sure to get some interval training in before your 1/2 if your doing 15 mi tempos.
