PMP my run

[El Gordo]

I seem to have a woefully slow official half PB (1:45-ish)

:o

Moving swiftly on, my 10K pace +45 seconds would give me a marathon time about 22 minutes faster than my PB.

I'm broadly following the Furman plan, though more in its structure than in its time stipulations. I have heard other people complaining about the pace of long runs on Furman.

When was your 10K time set Dan? Am just wondering if it's fair to base your current long run target times on a PB that might have been set when you were at your peak. Wouldn't it be fairer to run a 10K race now, or a tempo 10K in training, then base your long run guide time on that?

Can't remember what Furman has to say on this, but it does seem like a weakness with the system if they want you to base your current training runs on PBs that may have been set some time ago.
