What a 1:25 half marathon takes
Riegel’s formula, the one Run 42 uses for every pace in your plan, puts these times on the same level:
- 5K · 18:29
- 10K · 38:31
- Marathon · 2:57:13
A recent 10K faster than 38:31 says the speed is there; the long runs of a plan build the rest. Slower than that, the race time predictor gives a goal to start from.
