If you’ve ever blown up at mile 18… this episode is for you. www.run4prs.com
Most runners think missed marathon goals come from lack of fitness.
But in reality, pacing execution is the #1 reason runners fall short on race day.
In this episode, Coach Vic breaks down exactly how to pace a marathon — whether you’re running 2:50 or 5:00 — so you can protect your energy, fuel correctly, and finish strong.
You’ll learn:
• What marathon pacing actually is (it’s not just math)
• Why going out too fast destroys the final 10K
• The truth about “banking time”
• The universal pacing framework that works at any pace
• How fueling and pacing are directly linked
• How to practice pacing in training
• Race-day execution strategies that prevent blow-ups
The marathon rewards patience and discipline.
Anyone can run the first half — the real race starts at mile 18.
If you’re preparing for a marathon and want help building a pacing plan that actually matches your fitness, Run4PRs coaching is linked in the show notes.
