    Hi David,

    I have quite a large disconnect between the 2 recent races I’ve done.

    HM 1:34:12 Vs Marathon 3:41:23

    So if I want to train for my next race which time would you put in your running calculator to get my paces? A thought is HM time is the better of the 2 so I should use that? 4:10 min/km. Another thought is if I was training a marathon I could put in the Marathon time 4:39 min/km and 4:10 if training for a HM.

    Your solution? Thanks,
    Alan

    Allan, for sure use the best available time regardless of distance. If you have a 10K or 5K time (recent) and they end up with a better estimated threshold in teh calculator, use that.
