How do I determine my half-marathon pace?
Take your 10K race pace and add 15–30 seconds per mile: For example, if your 10K race pace is eight minutes per mile, then a good estimate of your half-marathon pace is 8:15–8:30 per mile. Faster runners find 15 seconds per mile works whereas slower racers, find 30 seconds per mile works.
How do I maintain my pace for a half-marathon?
Avoid going out too fast, possibly slowing pace up to 30 seconds slower than desired race pace. Time will be made up later in the race where it counts. Run your pace, not the pace of runners around you. Line up with runners of your ability and avoid weaving in and out of runners (this takes up energy).
How do you pace a hilly half-marathon?
Maintain close to the same “effort level” you’re running at before the hill (versus pace) to run up the hill. In other words, if your heart rate is at 80% before the hill, maintain close to that effort going up the hill (which means slowing down going up).
What heart rate is race pace?
To calculate your maximum heart rate, subtract your age from 220. Most athletes train at between 50 and 70 percent of their maximum heart rate. For example, if your maximum heart rate is 180 bpm, your target-training zone would be between 90 and 126 bpm.
