Dont know about Gobi but for me its worked in ranges:
easy 9:15-8:30
steady 8:20-7:50
mp 7:40-7:30

Steady is an odd one at first, but once you get used to running at that effort level you can see how people often mistake it for "easy" running!

Good thread by the way :)

I must say, I've always thought an 'average' male runner could run a 3hr marathon, if they had the commitment and the motivation, and did the correct training.

I'm way too lazy...

Curly - I dont believe the paces I ran at are important as they moved with the times so to speak

Safe to say I am always surprised by how quickly people run but then I did describe myself as the laziest 100 mile a week runner I knew :¬)
