Re: Forget Calculators: Actual Results?
I'm in the same boat as some of the above posters; I suffered from a lack of overall endurance in my first marathon. My other times mostly follow my VDOT predictions (~ 48.5) from Daniels' formula:
1 mile - 5:58
2 mile - 12:40
5k - 20:38
10k - 42:44
10 mile - 1:11:09
20k - 1:28:54
25k - 1:54:00
30k - 2:17:53
Marathon - 3:30:48
I should have run a 3:17:00 marathon, according to the charts. I dropped off at mile 19 when I tried to catch back up with my 3:20 pace group after a bathroom break at mile 15.
