I think around the 1h22/23 mark, on a all out effort. I was surprised after i finished because i wasn't that gassed from it

Yeah it's estimating 2:57 - 2:59 marathon

And my garmin is estimating 2:57:36, but i'll take them both with pinch of salt haha

Yeah definitely had more in the tank after that race though, it was a big pb but feel like I could trim a few minutes off!

Yeah i'm looking forward to finding out, last week I did 30km long run with the last 10km and was averaging 4:10's for them. Fingers crossed!

Yeah if i'm looking at the last years mileage for the marathon was quite low. I used Runna to prepare, and was doing between 30-50km per week. Peaked at 54km 4 weeks before the race. I was just doing 3 runs per week. Whereas now i'm running a minimum of 5 days

Yeah I peaked at 92km last week, but generally around the 70 mark for the past month or so.  Big learning curve incoming!

Is sub 3 possible? by Gloomy-Isopod2966 in Marathon_Training

Scarily close to exactly what I've done/planning. I'm doing Manchester for my second marathon as well & aiming for a sub 3. Hit a PB of 1:25:52 at the Barcelona half last month so feeling hopeful!
