I've done one Marathon on little to no training and ran a 2:52
Doing NYC in the fall... what do you think I should shoot for?
#1- road half marathon (flat course) in 1:16:50
#2 - 5 mi tempo @ 5:27 pace, last 2 miles at 5:10 - did this workout a few days before half marathon
#3 - long tempo on gravel roads @ 6:11 pace
I am thinking 2:40-2:45 might be possible, but wanted to see what you think

I’d say that is a good goal. 2:40-2:45
What is your definition of little to no training and what has been your training this time around? Is the new york course similar to your last marathon? 2:45 is definitely possible but if you have not trained that much 2:40 may be far out of reach. A 2:52 on a flat course will dock you around 2 minutes in NYC. We need more info but with no further info I'd say anywhere between 2:42-2:46 if everything goes well on race day.

Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
