Hey all,
Planning on running a marathon in a couple months. How should a marathon time compare with the 1/2 marathon split from a half IM?(assume you paced and run well in the 1/2 IM - similar courses/fitness...). Anyone have any advice/thoughts on heart rates for a (planned) 3:20-3:30 marathon. I ran a 1:41 at 1/2 vineman - my biking heart rates were in the low 150's - running heart rates were in the low 150's at the start of the run buiding to low 160's. I paced and ran the 1/2 marathon very well (ran faster than I thought I could run a stand-alone 1/2 marathon). I run 10K's with a heart rates in the low 170's. My run LT is aout 175. I cruise long runs (2 hours) in the 130-140's usually and will build to the low 150's if I feel strong. Thanks.
David
