I think you’re going to beat it 💪🏽 I always have a tough time keeping up with my Garmin race predictions i think I’ve only matched one marathon

[@demzre]

Now I’m inspired to attempt to run a half marathon next year. I never ran more than 10 miles. Maybe I’ll see you at the SF Half Marathon next year.

[@TheRunExperience]

YEAH!!

[@IainThacker]

You'll crush Boston off the back of the 100 miler! My Garmin is currently predicting a 1:34:25 half. Racing my second half, Lisbon Portugal, two weeks today... a recent progression run with the second 5k at 1:36 pace makes me doubt my watch's optimism but with taper and race-day vibes? Will be ecstatic for sub 1:38 and anywhere near 1:35 would be exceeding expectations.

Let us know how it goes! Sometimes you never know until you try!!

It was cool to get that quick glimpse of her food. I'd like to see what her menu is like for a full week. Is it different from race days to rest days? As always, great content... only in my dreams could I do 13 miles with a 7 minute mile pace.. wow, incredible

[@TheRunExperience]

I have a few vlogs on the channel where I go through that. I have one from last year where I went through a week of Boston training.

@@TheRunExperience Thank you

[@lizzierunliftbreathe]

Ok! I vote that you beat your watch!! ❤🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@-esox-3714]

Nice video format, good job on beating the predicted time. I remember last fall, my watch told me a possible 40 seconds slower 5k than I actually ran in the end. 40 seconds faster might not be too much but 5k isn´t that long of a race too. Good luck with the Boston project.

[@TheRunExperience]

Thank you!

[@tsubakichan]

Ohhhh you were originally going to do Kaiser Half? I was pretty bummed - not just for the cancellation but the weather wouldn't have been PR conditions either. But I waited a month and PR'd this past Sunday at Livermore Valley Half, which is a harder course! Congrats on your time trial! And best of luck at Boston '24!!!

[@TheRunExperience]

I was so sad to have it cancelled, but still got it done!!

[@domino3574]

That's pretty badass. Good luck in Boston .

[@lizzierunliftbreathe]

4:19 yesssss!!!! 🎉🎉🎉

[@iggalan]

I can consistently beat my Garmins' predicted race times, except for the marathon 😀 ... I'm too scared to push too much and blow it with 10 Km to go, 42.195 is a long long distance. But hey, this Sunday I will see if I can beat it.

[@jt.8144]

"don't let your watch control you".

[@TheRunExperience]

😂

[@Adamnealvelez]

My Garmin has my race predictions all about 10% faster than reality. Not sure if this means I need to push my efforts more at race pace to try and match, or that it’s just really off.

[@AlyssaEveMitchel93]

Same!!! My Garmin’s predictions are a bit too fast!

[@TheRunExperience]

It could also mean you're running your easy runs too hard, take them easier so you'll have more energy to push the hard runs harder.

[@-esox-3714]

For me, at least for short distance like 5k, an important aspect was to "embrace suffering" and just push on, this mental aspect I did miss early on I think and it made me beat the 5k prediction at least. For longer distances you can't just go over 100% I guess, as you will just break eventually and end up being slower in the end.

[@jamessawyer9018]

In the words of Captain America... language LOL

[@keithc7262]

Crushed it

[@susiesue3583]

What did you eat before your run I saw the oats and chia

[@TheRunExperience]

That was pretty much it, i added vital proteins collagen to the oats, and had tea with milk and sugar.

[@jamessawyer9018]

I gotta admit I'm pretty jealous that your training for Boston
