Going to be pacing my wife this September for a 4 hour marathon. Have no idea what the recovery will be like but it will be in the middle of a buildup for a 70.3
A bit about myself. I probably have a 4 hour marathon fitness base having been steadily training for 6 years plus. That would be just out the door and jog a marathon
during the off season. With in season long course try fitness I would guess I could pull off 3:20 maybe a bit faster. I did run a 3:48 at the end of my first year of endurance training
after training specifically for a marathon over a 4 month period. A lot of guessing here. My garmin race predictor claims a touch under 3 hours is theoretically possible.
Anybody care to share what their recovery was like pacing someone?
