The Berlin Marathon is one of the fastest marathon courses in the world. I was lucky enough to get a place through the ballot and despite a full calendar of races, I could not resist a chance at a fast marathon attempt in Germany.
So this is the story of an ill-fated and misjudged attempt at a fast marathon in Berlin. How did I do, well hopefully you'll watch the video to find out!

Come race time, I started with a PR pace, finished the first half in 1:41 and struggled the rest of the way. I finished in 3:39 and I, too, wish I had enjoyed the race more because second half was a big time struggle.

Stuart Mills a sports lecturer in Brighton has won the Lakeland 100 a few times. One year he analysed all the London Marathon splits, 85% ran a slower 2nd half than the first half. Unless you are elite, if you plan to run a marathon at even pace you will not finish in your expected time.... If you want to run a 4hr marathon you need to get halfway in 1h, 50min...or less....

@FilmMyRun Год назад

Yes, I know Stuart very well. He's also won the Beachy Head marathon many times. I think the reason the stats show that you can't run a marathon evenly paced is because the vast majority of people can't....or rather don't because they start too fast, as I did in this race. Over confidence or inexperience. However, experienced runners can do it and I have done it before. It's all about discipline. Thank you so much for watch. really appreciated. Do you have any races on the horizon?

Every painful experience is a learning event. And we only appreciate it that later. Next time in Berlin, you will enjoy it more (just because it will be better than this time). My one big city marathon was Tokyo 2008. It was awful, freezing rain, all food on the course eaten by everyone in the top 2/3 by of the runners. Regional city marathons are so much more fun, and they try much harder. Next is Toyama. Cheers.

@markdawson2989 Год назад

Well done. That would be a great time for me! Berlin was my first marathon back in 2005, so it was a highlight finishing that, also London marathon in 2015 as it took ages to get a place and was fantastic and got a PB there. Things switched totally to trail and mountain runs in the last few years, so finishing the UTMB CCC race in 2019 was just brilliant! Low point was dropping out of the TDS at Beautfort when i should have at least seen how I was getting to the dawn, the woods put me in a downer and at 1:50am and no support to give me a boost at that time I dropped out. Hopefully I can get a place in the first come first served race next year. You've done so many races this year, that's a great time for Berlin.

@FilmMyRun Год назад

Hey Mark. Those woods before Beaufort were absolutely horrendous weren't they?!! I know Loyd (Purvis) struggled there too. Hopefully you can get to the end next year. I think it should be fairly easy to get in as long as you are on the ball with your entry.

@markdawson2989 Год назад

@@FilmMyRun The woods switched me to being very negative in the last stretch of them. With being close to Beaufort and the main meal there, I put off having energy bars and gels too long. Took me two hours to descent the mountain to Beaufort, so thik this was my downfall. Hopefully the TDS doesn't book up in a few minutes. Hopefully they give us a time for when it goes live. Good luck with your other adventures. Looking forward to UTS, looks ike it'll be a sell out, not many spaces left.

I also went out too fast in Berlin and my second half was almost a +20 min positive split. Is it possible to run a marathon and not hit a wall because that always happens even if I start of slow?

@FilmMyRun Год назад

Yes it’s perfectly possible to run negative splits and not hit the wall. You just have to be brutally realistic about your marathon pace…..AND you probably need to do more long slow runs. Most marathon plans will only have you running up to 20 miles once or twice. I think you probably need to do a couple of marathon distance training runs over the hills, really slowly…. Like 4-5 hours running to train your body to use its fast stores as energy and to become accustomed to long distance endurance

@HenryWu1994 Год назад

@@FilmMyRun so you do more than two 20 milers and even push those long runs beyond 20 miles?

@FilmMyRun Год назад

@@HenryWu1994 absolutely. But I am also primarily an ultra runner, so some of my long runs are actually races and can be 50-100 miles. So running 26.2 is not a distance which has any psychological fear for me. It’s just how fast I can go!! A lot of this is in your head. So as well as the physical benefit from running SLOWLY over longer distances than 20 miles, it’s also a psychological benefit because you no longer fear the distance.

@HenryWu1994 Год назад

@@FilmMyRunmy issue is always my muscles get sore by mile 20-22 and my pace drops 1-2 minutes/mile atleast no matter if I start off slow or fast. It’s a little frustrating since this never happens during my 20 mile run(aerobics are never as issue since I can always breathe easily and be conversational during the marathon so that may indicate I am not exerting enough effort during my training). It seems like for you if you maintain an 8 minute pace during a marathon you’ll never hit a wall based on this video and your ultra running. My fastest marathon time is my half marathon x 2 + 48 minutes whereas I think it should be half marathon x 2 + 15/20 minutes. So I guess I need to increase mileage, incorporate speed and tempo workouts(which I never do and I think I may need to increase lactate threshold based on how my muscles always get sore towards the end), cross train, and perhaps hire a coach?
