What a 1:30 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 · 19:34
- 10K · 40:47
- Marathon · 3:07:39
A recent 10K faster than 40:47 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.
