#112: Perfect pacing - how to work out what time to go for and turn that plan into reality

Pacing is as much an art as it is a science. Calculators are fun to look at to get an idea of how you might do over a certain race distance but the feel of it is important too.Then there is the extra incentive of a nice round number which can play into your thoughts and aims in a positive (and sometimes reckless!) way.Today I talk about factors to think about in your pacing such as how aggressive you want to be, the course elevation and potential weather concerns.I also lean into the 'vibes' side of it. Sometimes you will simply have a better day than other days and that has to play into your plan as well.Coaching capacity is close to full but if you want to improve in your marathon this spring, check out my new course 26.2 days to master the marathon at www.therunningrules.com/master-the-marathon
