In this week´s episode we take a deep dive on your Marathon Pace for training over the next few weeks and whether that will be the same or different on race day.

We chat about how Marathon Pace is an output of current fitness, durability, fuelling and conditions. It is not created by choosing a finish time and our key question this week is: Are you training at the pace you’ve earned, or the pace you hope to run?

Enjoy the listen and enjoy the miles.

With René Borg and Eoin Flynn from Running Coach Ireland.

In last weeks Episode 3 of the Autumn Marathon podcast, our focus was on Fueling and the importance of treating fueling as a key part of our training week and not just a logistical item to work out for race day. Some of the key aspects we discussed were:

• Fuelling is trained, not planned

• The gut adapts progressively, like everything else

• Duration decides the demand, not distance

• Practise the race version, not the convenient version

• Under-fuelling shows up as a training problem before it shows up as a nutrition one.
