East London Half Marathon 2019

February 10, 2019

On Sunday 10th February 2019 I took part in the inaugural East London “Olympic Park” Half Marathon. This event was put on by Runthrough events, and I joined the #RIOTSQUAD pace team by Runarchy. This was my 2nd run of the year after running the Winterrun 10k last weekend (check out blog HERE). My debut … More East London Half Marathon 2019

Another #MedalMonday and this week it's from #hamptoncourthalf https://pickupthepacepaul.com/2019/02/17/hampton-court-half-marathon-2019/ I don't want to speak to soon, but is this a sign that spring is coming, what a lovely day it was to run.. I'm not picking up a medal next weekend? What about you?
Welcome to the #funbus Today I took 100's of runners around #hamptoncourthalf for a sub 1:45 https://pickupthepacepaul.com/2019/02/17/hampton-court-half-marathon-2019/ Check out my new blog about the event. Where have you been running today?
What a fantastic run at #hamptoncourthalf I had originally been planning to go for my own run, but a call last night to come and pace was answered. I came to help pave the 1:45 #funbus and I helped them #pickupthepace and came in at 1:44:38 Lots of happy runners today. Who has been running today? How did you get on? BLOG UPDATED
It's that time on a Saturday night that we know its race day tomorrow... Nice little #flatlay for my first #halfmarathon without a pace flag in many years. Looking forward to #hamptoncourthalf who will be joining me. This will just form part of my training so I'm not going to go silly and risk injury, but I will see how I feel and push a little harder than normal... need to build confidence some how. Wish me luck EDIT.... CHANGE OF PLAN I am now pacing the 1:45 #funbus for @xempo who will be with me??? Dont worry... I have benidorm half in 2 weeks and will push hard there 💪🏻💪🏻
Continuing with my "How to run a marathon faster series" I share some great tips from running legend @teamedwards_1000 in my #newblog https://pickupthepacepaul.com/2019/02/16/how-to-run-a-marathon-faster-with-steve-edwards/ Take a look at Steve's incredible journey, and his tips for running a marathon faster time and time again. #LondonMarathon
I NEED YOUR HELP... On Sunday I will be running my first half marathon in many years without a pace flag... #hamptoncourthalf As you will all know, I want to get faster at the marathon distance. I've started doing some speed work, but I am far from ready... so here is the dilemma. My #parkrun has been consistently around 20 mins. At #WinterRun I did just over 40 mins. So same speed, just held for longer... when I finished I felt like I could keep going. I pace the 1:40 #funbus comfortably, and 1:30 is realistic. The big question is do I just go for a sensible 1:30 to build confidence, or do I go at a faster pace and accept that I might be going too hard and risk slowing?? Thoughts? 📷 @thisdadcanrun
