Yesterday, I got in a fairly long walk (16 miles) and I did it faster than I thought I should. 13.83 minute miles average. I was really trying for a slower walk and more mileage…I could have gone further, but I was bored and wanted a break from the monotony of the park.
What I really need to do is to stop focusing on the times and spend more “time” on just doing more miles. It’s conditioning, not speed that is needed for the long distances. Race day and the crowd will bring out all the reserves you need to do well. Just having some competition will cut many minutes off of your usual pace.
