touche turtle Mar 2016 7:52pm, 13 Mar 2016 388 posts	0 touche turtle Well done I got 1:41:36 at Brighton half a few weeks ago it was off the back of an 11 mile training run the pervious day. So hoping to achieve a sub 1:40 at Hastings next Sunday with a better taper and a bit of luck.

tipsku Mar 2016 11:45pm, 17 Mar 2016 472 posts	0 tipsku Good luck on Sunday, touche turtle. to get 1:41:36 off an 11 mile training run is quite impressive. Well done! You'll get there in double digit territory on Sunday when you're rested.
Ulric Sep 2016 11:34am, 25 Sep 2016 343 posts	0 Ulric This thread seems a bit quiet, anyone targetting an autumn half in this time range? I'm hoping to do one in a fortnight, not a fast course and haven't run one since 1990... figure high 1:30s but nervous about pushing it all the way. Barely got up to 30mpw and that's about all I can handle these days. Did one over distance run the other day, 14.6 miles which is the furthest I've ever run. Left my shins a bit dodgy but I think I've managed to get that back under control. Did a session of 2x2M on a canal towpath at just under 7' mile pace and really want to see that improve.

Ulric Sep 2016 8:43pm, 25 Sep 2016 347 posts	0 Ulric So you are... then the Standalone which I think I ran a few times in the 90s. Good luck anyway.
Nellers Sep 2016 9:05pm, 26 Sep 2016 30,978 posts	0 Nellers I am absolutely nowhere near this at the mo, but if I can stay injury-free and keep the training consistent they maybe I'll get a bit closer in the spring. Good luck Ulric and HoD.
