I was just curios about how hard they were, as the pace is similar to what I ran for 10-13 mile training runs many years ago. A 10 miler in 64 minutes was 'hard' and 72 'easy'. Being a metric country we only had one or two ten mile races per year.Ewenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01093209634556111656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6385658443328594719.post-26961132192140320802009-03-02T21:08:00.000-08:002009-03-02T21:08:00.000-08:00Nice long run on the heels of Saturday’s w/o.

It's so much longer than anything I've put in a hard effort on that it's just too far to accurately extrapolate the curve. <BR/><BR/>Clearly I have no over-distance training for such an event, so having it be anything more than a long tempo run would likely be a huge challenge. I imagine that unless I were to set aside a few months to train for that distance, my time wouldn't be very good.<BR/><BR/>With that said, these long runs aren't really "tempo runs" for me. They're slow enough such that I can run at that pace every day. However, as the workout intensities ramp up, the pace of these other runs should slow down some so that I can put more effort into the workouts.<BR/><BR/>Sorry I don't have a better answer.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06747591179607121086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6385658443328594719.post-30635628490719771712009-03-02T01:38:00.000-08:002009-03-02T01:38:00.000-08:00Good week and long run Mike.

I could run 11 miles at that pace once - I think it was 1991 ;)<BR/><BR/>I didn't know you'd only been running for a year and a half - you're doing well for so little background.<BR/><BR/>What do you think you'd race 10 miles in? I'm just wondering how much slower your long-run pace is.Ewenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01093209634556111656noreply@blogger.com
