A 12 mile run @ 8:57/mile pace in 1:47. 

A progressive run for the first six miles at

9:20, 9:10, 9:00, 8:50, 8:40, and 8:30. 

Then a Gatorade break for mile 7 with walking – a 9:44 split. 

Did a 9:00/mile split for mile 8

and 8:50s for mile 9-11

with a final 12th mile at 8:39/mile.    

 

I am at VDOT 42 for the 5K and Half Marathon distance.

Not so for the Marathon distance because I have not put in the Long runs.

VDOT 42 would require I go out at 8:35/mile pace for the Marathon.

If I do that in NY, the doors will come off at mile 18-20.

My only shot – go for 8:55/mile AP for the Marathon.

The plan thus is to go for 9:00s for the first 20 miles and then pick up the pace for the last 6.2 miles. 

Prepare: Simply do 13-20 milers at MP + 25 seconds (which is 9:00/mile)
