Marathon season is here and it's exciting to see everyone finish off their marathon cycle, start their taper, and get ready for race day! But, before you head to that starting line you need to make sure you have a race plan in place. The first order of business for that plan is simple yet potentially befuddling: What is your actual marathon pace/effort?
In this episode, I dive head first into these murky waters to help you answer this question for yourself. I will also touch on several pacing and racing strategies that you should avoid at all costs!
Finally, a compliment to this episode can be found on Relay (www.patreon.com/relay) where I am posting a written piece comparing some of the most popular marathon pacing calculators on the internet.
