Woah, woah, woah! How come I get the guff for a 5:15 prediction? Me; an almost 40 year old novice who's never ran a mile before
All this when other posters, who I won't call out
(one is named after a pretty flaky midfielder who, a couple of brilliant cameos aside, including an amazing 1st half that unfortunately was ended by injury the night Porto equalised in the last minute at OT and Jose came into our collective consciousness, was so ****e they named him twice)
, have ran a Berlin Marathon qualifying time this year and get away scot-free with posting a 5:30 target!?
Absolutely outrageous.
This is a very valid point. It does indeed seem a greater crime than yours. In my defence I will argue that I don't know the background of all the posters here. The only solution to this is for others to follow your very fine example and blow the cover of any similar levels of skullduggery.

I am not sure who you are hinting at here.
But I would imagine they took their 5km time (which was 20 seconds slower than predicted time) and divided by 3 and took another bit off to arrive at that predicted time.
I would imagine that is what happened but as I don't know who you are referring too I couldn't be certain.
On a side note I am Off to check how you rereg.0 -

Ah feck it, I'll give it a go.
I put the 5k TT result into McMillan and it came back with a 1 mile of 10.17 :eek: I'm going to round it down to 10.20 as if it makes a difference :pac: and hope that's okay.
I've spent the last week thinking about it, and eyeing up the routes while out. It's hard to find any where that's not a hill within 5km. I think I've found somewhere on Strava, it's an industrial estate though, so hopefully I won't be murdered. Though some one chasing me might push me on :pac: Not entirely sure it's even and can't try it out before the big day, so what will be will be.
Going to go back to page 1 and find out what to do
Oh...Female 43

Anything that takes the heat off me and S even for a short while is very welcome.

On the contrary I will happily reverse handicap anyone who commits to that. 20s deducted from total time per 355ml beer consumed. Lol0 -

Both can vary from watch to watch. Sometimes the elevation gain shown is the total elevation gain other times it is the net gain. For example if you did a 1km run which was pancake flat, then went up 20 metres before dropping down again to a flat run to the end of 10k......some watches show zero elevation gain as the up and down cancel each other out, others will show 20m of elevation gain because you climbed 20m.
Likewise for grade percentage...some will show zero, others will show 2% ie. 20m elevation in a 1,000 metre run.
What's the context?0 -

Yeah that's fine. It means the 36 feet of elevation has been cancelled out by 36 feet of drop. Perfect! 0 -
