#139: The art and science of race pacing and a look back at a rare 10k race win at the weekend

from The Running Rules Podcast · host Alan Ladd

Today's episode is all about how to pace yourself on race day. I look at different possible pacing strategies and why going out slower in longer races is likely to help you get your best race time.I talk about how to get around GPS inaccuracies and how to prepare mentally for the end of a long race to stop you losing a lot of time.I also look back to a rare race victory this weekend at the Annaghmore 10k and how it was a completely different mental approach than simply time trialling a race.You can get help with your upcoming race with a personal race prep call at www.therunningrules.com/services
