Thanks for this...very useful! Towards the end you gave a breakdown of pacing at the 32km...what would you think is required for a sub3h15...taking into account Stellenrust climb?
Hi Yaseen, thanks for the feedback. Using the same strategy as outlined in the video if you maintain an avg. pace of 4:30/km for the first 32.2km your time will be 2hrs25min, and you will have 50min to complete the last 10km (avg. 5min/km). The Stellenrust climb is by no means a tough climb, but it comes at a challenging time of the race. Where fatigue & heat exhaustion will be a factor. Thats why I advocate this type of tiered pacing strategy.
Running Races...thanks for the response! Will implement next week and hope for the best! Will be sure to give you feedback! Btw, love this type of analysis...will be good for other races!
Smashed a 3h23 at Winelands 2017! Thanks for the video analysis...looking forward to more of these maybe something on Bay2Bay?✌🏽
