Paddock Wood Half

Race

66 Points

2km WU @ Easy Pace (RPE: 2)
21.09km @ HM Pace (RPE: 5-8)
2km CD @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)

SUMMARY 📝

Very few hills, the most notable at the start, so an excellent opportunity for a PB. Try and nail down that pacing early on and keep it consistent. Dig deep when it gets tough.

FEEDBACK

COACH SIMON NOTES 🍊

If you’re looking for a race to run a half marathon PB in the South East of England then pencil in “Paddock Wood”. There’s a relatively small hill early on the route and a couple of railway bridges towards the end, but apart from that, it’s flat folks.

It normally attracts a strong field and a large field meaning there is every chance you’ll find a group running at your pace to tuck in with. This is again a real asset if you are looking to run a PB.

The route itself offers little in the way of distractions and you spend 80% of your time on what seems to be the same country lane.

That itself can provide a mental challenge and the support outside of the town is somewhat limited.

I have fond memories of this race having achieved my first sub 2 half marathon here. I’ve since recorded four more half marathon PBs in this race. Definitely a good race for anyone seeking a new half marathon personal best.

If you are looking to improve your running and achieve a new half marathon PB, perhaps at Paddock Wood, then get in touch about a bespoke training plan with Coach Simon and Team Orange.
