i did a longer warmup on sunday and ate my breakfast 2hrs 30min prior to running, so i also had a gel at the start to top off my energy stores

every runner is different but a good rule of thumb is to have some sort of fuel when you are running for 75-90 minutes. fuel also helps with recover

i used to be more conservative with using gels, but I find I just feel a lot better when im not running on empty. and run better

    Thoughts on training at a slower pace?

    I'm signed up to run a marathon this fall and I'd like to break 4 hours. The training plan I'm using wants me to run my long runs and easy runs at like 9:53/mile, which feels obnoxiously slow. If I trust the plan and just build mileage at a slower pace, will I still be able to knock out 26.2 in ~9:00/mile on race day? (The plan does have faster intervals and pace training throughout the week.)

    Background: Always been a decent runner. Ran several half marathons and busted out a full marathon in college without really training (14 years ago!). Recently been more into CrossFit the last couple years... this is my first time seriously committing to a training plan/race with a goal in mind.
    Race update: I ran the Columbus Marathon yesterday in 4:00:31! Yep, missed my goal by just 30 seconds officially (though my watch had me at 3:59:55... so I'll go with that ).

    Lessons learned:
    -Don't trust your watch! The only thing I can think of is that it paused itself automatically when I stopped to use the toilet... but I caught it and restarted it right away, couldn't have been more than 5 seconds. Either way, paces can be off because distances vary, so give yourself a decent buffer!

    -Don't stop your training program 2.5 months prior to the race. Long story short, the race I was going to run in September was cancelled due to COVID (dumb). My training app never "re-synced" itself for the new October race, and I let myself fall off my plan (lots of travel for work and a new baby didn't help). I felt way more prepared at the end of July than I did in October... those 30 seconds would have been easy to make up if I had stuck with the plan!

    -Energy gel shots are money. I took 3 during the race: Miles 8, 17, and 22... but get flavors you like! That chocolate one at the end was gross.

    -Start with the correct group. My brother and I were a little late getting to the starting line and found ourselves starting farther back in the pack than we were supposed to. Those first couple miles were super packed and slow... also could've made up 30 seconds had I started at the correct pace!

    All that said, the weather was perfect and the race support was outstanding... it was a beautiful day for running 26.2!

    Damn,bro! Nice job! Ugh, those 31 seconds would kill me though. Especially knowing that your fitness was more on point earlier in the year.

    Regarding that last point, you probably had a way more enjoyable experience though because those first few miles were slower than what you wanted compared to most people who start too fast.

    congrats!!!!! for a first timer, you killed it !!! how are you feeling today? is it too early for me to ask what’s next?

    it stinks when you get stuck in a large pack and want to get ahead. there were a lot of narrow parts of marine corps marathon where I just had to ride it out. i find that it’s the better approach instead of zig zagging

    what was the total distance when you were done? that’s another good thing to think about for others- “cut corners” when you can. the chicago marathon actually has a secret painted line on the route that is the “shortest” route possible (Aka 26.2)

    Yep, not running the tangents will always add up over 26.2

    Thanks! It wasn't actually my first one though. Ran Denver back in college at 4:12 (without really training). So I guess I set a new PR - almost a minute faster per year older. Feeling pretty good today, much better than I remember feeling last time. Legs are pretty sore though, I think I'll skip the gym for a day or two.

    Next up is getting back into my CrossFit gym for the next few months. I miss those workouts (completely different from marathon training) and I'm paying enough for my membership, should probably get something out of it. But I think I'll definitely run another marathon someday to officially break 4 hours haha. Otherwise find some halves to run... much more fun distance. Maybe some off-road trail races since I'm moving out west soon?

    My watch said total distance was about 26.31 miles... so slightly longer but not too far off. How accurate are those GPS watches anyway (I have a newer Apple Watch, and had my phone with me the entire time). I did notice these little blue arrows painted on the course at every turn... maybe those were the ideal route.

    yeah I like the half distance, too. satisfying distance, and it doesn’t wreck your body requiring so much recovery time like a marathon does. meaning, if you have a shitty half race (bad weather, sick, etc) you can go out a few weeks after and try again. if you have a shitty marathon, can’t really do that

    Halfs are my favorite. I like 30ks too. It’s either halves or ultras for me.

    My wife and I just signed up for our first half marathon for April 2022. It's a super easy, flat course around the San Diego Bay, so it seems like a good entry-level race. We're going with a 20-week training plan beginning the first week of December since we pretty much are starting from scratch after the last 2 months were pretty inactive.

    I'm mostly excited about having a regime to stick to, which is also going to pay off huge with more focused eating, less drinking, etc.

    Congrats! Totally agree...having a race as an X marks the spot on the calendar makes it so much easier to be good. That said, I'm up 6 or 7 pounds going into a half next weekend. So I guess it didn't work quite as well for me this time around

    10K road race tomorrow afternoon on a course I'm pretty familiar with. Hoping for a PR. Legs are tiredish from marathon training but my cardio has never been better.

    Taper for the marathon officially starts Monday!

    Thanks! I’d actually be stoked to put on some lbs heading into this. I don’t have much to lose, minus the beer weight I’ve put on.

    Sub 40!

    3rd overall. Course was short so I had to keep running to make sure my Garmin PR was under 40. Made it by 1 second

    I can't believe this thread is still alive.

    I've hit 10 miles three times in the past week and a half, something I haven't done since COVID hit.

    Great run Caz!


    So on the week of 10/11 I went out for a run on the roads during the day and had to make it quick because I had a meeting for work coming up, didn't really stretch at all, ran too hard, my left leg which I've had operated on 5X all within a couple inches of each other completely blew up and looked like a tennis ball under my leg. I was freaked out and thinking here we go again with medical procedures, getting fat, whole 9 yards. I stopped running and went to the gym a lot more working on posterior chain, some upper body lifting, a lot of flexibility and yoga type stuff. My leg finally flattened back out and I tried a run yesterday after doing about every stride drill and dynamic stretching thing I could think of, felt better than I have on any other run all year and the fall foliage was like running through a painting. A great run and a bit of a wake up call on cross training and warming up, stuff I know but don't necessarily follow all the time.

And then one 8-10 mile run at race pace. Shouldn't have a problem beating my PR of 1:48:13. Stretch goal sub 1:45.
    Perfect running weather. 50 at the start and 53 mostly cloudy at the finish.

    Unofficial time: 1:42:48 7:40 pace

    Watch time: 13.49 miles 1:42:50 7:37 pace

    I’m pretty pleased

    Correction…7:51 unofficial pace. First half was 8:02, second half was 7:40.


    I think my watch had a little trouble the first 4 miles with so many runners/other GPS devices. Watch was reading 4.25 at the 4 mile marker

    Nice! Solid pace and decent elevation in there.

    Aiming to get 3 runs/week this month ahead of starting training beginning in December. Did 4 miles last night, which is the longest run I've done since June. I think it's still in my top 5 longest runs ever lol.

    Saw a steady decline in my pace and ended up just over 9 min/mile. I was definitely dogging it the last mile and a half.

    i have a half in two weeks, not sure how it will go. im sort of guessing my target pace based on my last half in 2019, but I was in better speed shape back then. not sure how “slow” to go out and went to pick it up. trying not to overthink it, it’s just a race, and I slacked a little with training. ill be happy if im under 145

    either way I think this little training cycle will put me in a good position to grab a sub 140 in the spring
