I'm no use to you there, MD. My Almeria game plan was to go hard out for as long as I could. A tight hammy at 16k put paid to that
In Paris (my 26.2 PB run) I went with the 'balloons' (RW markers). The 3:45 lot were just ahead for ages and I knew that couldn't be right . . . turned out they were slow and had to leg it for the last 10k - bet their runners loved that! I think the FLM pacers are pretty solid; my advice would be to go with them. They are bound to be erratic at stages where they hit traffic, but all in all I reckon they'll get the job done.
Cheers, and congrats on another week banked without mishap.
