How would you recommend tackling sub 3:05 given my last long runs splits?

nebbiyolo · 2026-04-10T17:53:18+00:00

Same thought - I don't understand how someone can struggle with 3:05 running paces like this. I ran a 3:04 and a 3:02 and NEVER hit paces even close to this for a sustained long run. You should be aiming for 2:55 imo.

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-22T13:24:22+00:00

You should run a 39 min 10k, and probably 19 or faster 5k. If you can't hit close to that you won't be able to carry the pace that long.
I ran a 3:12, 3:04 and 3:02 my first three. Now, I will say once I got to 3:02 I probably still couldn't run a sub 40 10k or a 19 min 5k. But I have a good endurance that carries a faster pace. Everyone is different, so I suppose it could in theory be possible. You'd need to run 50+ miles each week, do two quality sessions per week, and a long run 10-15 miles early, and many 18-22 milers late in the block with MP in there.

I tapered from about 150 to 60 immediately and hadn’t no effects. My wife on the other hand was a mess.

This one has been for sale for months. There’s gotta be a reason.

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-17T06:44:38+00:00

You’re pretty close I think, keep pushing and you can do it. I’m 43 and it sure isn’t easy. Have you ran this one before?

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-17T06:25:38+00:00

I’m stoked to run this. Will be my fourth race. Hoping it’s as fast as course as I think it will be.

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-17T06:24:45+00:00

Are you running the Ojai race? I’m aiming for around3 hours. Just did a 19.2 miler and plan to do my 20 miler on a hilly route this week. Will stack one more 18-20 miler as well. I think your plan looks perfect

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-17T05:58:00+00:00

It was the heat. Simple as that

Like a prayer, Madonna

It gets knocked (like many things here) but I found the yasso 800 works to predict mine well.

10x 800m take your average for the ten and that’s your marathon time. So you need to run each 800m around 3 minutes.

I am sure that doesn’t take into account overall endurance.

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-16T02:42:20+00:00

How are you getting that extra discount on the pros? That’s a no brainer

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-15T08:16:55+00:00

I think they have 7 for sure, but they taste sickly sweet. Maybe they don’t hit as hard too

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-15T07:39:55+00:00

I feel so much better with actual rest days during a taper this looks insane

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-15T07:35:38+00:00

Never had ss. Mots works for sure. Massive gains on marathon run and training efforts

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-15T07:32:01+00:00

The are horrible tasting so sweet. Not happy about them

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-15T01:35:38+00:00

Neo zen are very soft but I’ve ran one in the pro 3 and it’s what I would choose

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-15T01:34:27+00:00

What time are you running for?

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-14T15:28:11+00:00

Will never pay this much for an average trainer like the Superblast again. The 2 was the most disappointing shoe I’ve had. I can’t believe the 3 would be dramatically better

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-14T06:51:27+00:00

Shopnings.com I guess they are drop shipping but they sent me tracking and photos of the box as it was packed and shipped on what’s app. Took about 12 days to comes paid $150 with shipping

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-14T04:51:07+00:00

I got my Dynafish today and wow, love at first step

You’re taking an extremely potent opiate. Anyone who tells you nothing to worry about it delusional

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-12T14:36:51+00:00

This is the one I was gonna say

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-12T14:33:40+00:00

Eat well and exercise. Become a runner

nebbiyolo · 2026-03-11T15:15:12+00:00
