Running Tip of the Day: The Finishing-Time Rule The longer - TopicsExpress



          

Running Tip of the Day: The Finishing-Time Rule The longer the race, the slower your pace. How much slower? Jack Daniels and J.R. Gilbert spent years compiling a table (see Predict Your Performance) that shows how much you should expect to slow down from one race distance to the next. We did some curve-fitting to come up with a formula that generates a pseudo-VO2-max for each race time, says Daniels. They sweated the math; now you just need to sweat the race. The Exception: Terrain, weather, or how you feel on race day could all throw off the tables accuracy.
