With the hills, I’ve found half marathon pace is the best we can hope for here, but obviously that will fluctuate greatly depending on the section you are on. Dig deep up the hills and focus on good form.
Tough race this one but you’re very strong on the hills and have that ability just to keep going. It’s a tricky one to set targets for, but I’ve found aiming for around half marathon pace worked well. Obviously it’s much hillier than a flat half, but also shorter in distance. Somewhere around 1:45 would be an excellent time, but no pressure to push for that. Good luck Mark.
