No, not when you haven't run for 5/6 years and are 17 stone plus. Hey, nothing is impossible but doubtful. Like I said though earlier I have never tried to run that far in years so I'm going off my last 5k's I did a few years back. I have never tried to run to a pace to do a half in years so maybe I'm overestimating what it takes. Unless i try it now I shouldn't really comment on it tbh.

THE STIFFMEISTER 16,087 Posted June 1, 2020 Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 Those times are for born again physers who’ve had a decade off pal . A lad who does hiit training theee times a week should easily be able to slug around a half in less that 1:50 i think gnash is quite tall as well so should have the levers to pull round as your legs will outlast your lungs Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'll try and find it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greb147 6,809 Posted June 1, 2020 Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 Finishing a half-marathon in less than two hours is a common goal for experienced half-marathons runners. Running a sub 2 hour, or 1:59:59, half-marathon means maintaining a 9:09 average pace per mile. That time is considered a decent half marathon time among runners.

THE STIFFMEISTER 16,087 Posted June 1, 2020 Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 I guess I’m an elite athlete then as I’ve never ran over 1:40 for a half and have a pb of 1 22 that I’ll never break and I’m a little fat c**t !! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Like I said in my previous post I wouldn't normally call someone out on something so trivial but Gnasher has called me out on a few things over the last few days so I couldn't help myself. You're going to give me stick for saying he's exaggerating when he's done that himself by showing data that doesn't tally up. I don't want to argue and fall out over a silly little topic like this so I will leave it at that. I don't dislike the man or have a vendetta against him it was just a bit of banter that got out of hand. I've told him if he wants to continue bickering to do it over PM, I'm done with it because I don't want to ruin a thread. I assure you I'm not on here to cause trouble. are you the guy was chuckin the lurchers out the subaru sending videos of the pads and shat himself to turn up at the racecourse? 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

VOON 1,317 Posted June 2, 2020 Report Share Posted June 2, 2020 (edited) If you’re getting injured running slow down I’m up to 15k now. No injuries. Run till you hit heart rate limit...walk till you recover..... Edited June 2, 2020 by VOON 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
terryd 8,502 Posted June 2, 2020 Report Share Posted June 2, 2020 I did a half in 1.51 from being a fat b*****d and not being able to run for 5 minutes in a go. So starting off being fit you could trounce that. If gnash was clocking up 9 min miles for two hours just cruising he could get a tidy time. Also with running if you want to go all out on the day it is surprising what you can pull out the bag. Once you get half way and know its in the bag just bust a gut 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
