Last long run at marathon pace for me, the rest is all easy (lol)

I do have the Hastings Half coming up as my tune-up race, looking forward to that

Nice feeling to know the hard work is nearly done

Good luck for Hastings

Indoors, and short because my calves and the treadmill don't get along.

Minimag 17 miles at MP ?

You and riggys99 have a special talent to do these runs in training.

That said I never ran more than 10 miles at MP outside of an actual marathon and doubt I went much over 5 in one go in a solo training run ever.

It is interesting looking at how people approach marathon work.

I'm doing 2 to 4 with MrsG later

Gobi, I am following Pfitzinger and Douglas 55 miles per week or less 18 week marathon plan, the plan called for:
Long Run
17mi
17 miles with 14 miles at marathon race pace

However, the calculators suggest I can do a marathon at 8:23 mile pace, I am aiming for 8:50, and thats the pace I did this run at, most of my long runs are at 9:30 pace, 67s slower than my suggested marathon pace

Respect to doing that solo in March. My long runs were anywhere from 1.30 to 4mins per mile slower than MP but then I was 100k training in those days .

I used to do a half marathon with a long warm up and then a couple afterwards but the 13 was always faster than MP.
