What a 1:50 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 · 23:55
- 10K · 49:51
- Marathon · 3:49:21
A recent 10K faster than 49:51 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.
