PMP my run

[running4rwanda]

I remember once seeing a 'predictor' which said that as you double your distance, add about 20-sec per mile to your pace. This almost ties in with your figure of PMP = 10k pace + 45 sec

The problem with predictors is that people are better suited to particular distances, or train specifically for a distance.

Looking at my PB's from years ago when I bothered with such things, my pace for my marathon was well over a minute/mile slower than my 10k pace. My 10-mile was about 15-sec slower than 10k pace, whereas my half pace was about 15-sec slower again, and my 5k PB was only about 5-sec/mile faster than my 10k pace.

I decided that I was best suited to 10k and 10-miles. 5k's were too fast for me, and half-marathons and especially marathons were too long, no matter how much mileage I put in
