When I did stamford this year lums I set the virual partner and didnt look at HR at all, I went more by how I felt. If I had looked at my HR I would have slowed down and got a slower time than I was capable of. As it was I did hold myself back so I woudl have underachieved big time if I had used the HR, That doesnt really answer your Q though about the 10 miler. I think you should beable to do a 10 miler at more than 80% though, look back at what you have done HMs at, wasnt Stamford over 80% and that was a longer race, a shorter race should be a higher HR

Yes and no hellen. Stamford was over 80% but I was a running machine back then. I will probably run to just under PB pace I think and see what the HR is.
I need a PB to get the buzz back, I need to run a sensible race as well without having to stop, and I want to run a negative split. There are a couple of hills at 2 and 9 miles so I am planning on something like 8:20 pace all round except mile 2 and 9 where I will add 20s or so. And the of course it's eyes out for the Last one.

My last 10 miler was 86% average Lums.
But I reckon just run it as hard as you feel comfortable with! The as hard as you don't feel comfortable with for the last couple! Forget the HR, go by feel on race day.

It will be a pressure race - have a side bet that alan1976 will not beat me by more than 11:47.
I think he will at the moment. My PB is 1:24:30 but I DID run 10m in 79:59 in training 15 months ago. Before i started HR training LOL. Couldn't do it now though.

Not sure what pace I will run my first marathon at, will use this weekends HM to guage how my training has gone over the winter and then decide. I wont do it to an HR though I will decide on a pace to run.

Mine just hit 215 - hoping that was just a spike after having been out for a week!

Tempo-ish kind of run tonight with Joopsy. 1m w/up and down with supposedly 5 x 9:00 miles inbetween.
We actually averaged 8:30 for the first 4 and then I put my foot down and did 7:20 for the last mile @ 85% (does that count sir!?)
The 8:30 miles were 75-79% so a good sign for my 10m which I want to run at 8:20

Top running Lums, left me for dead on the last mile, lucky for me I have 5 days in Eurodisney to recover whilst you are at work!
