Is it recommended to drink water halfway through your race? Like 10km, suddenly feel dehydrated then grab a water cup from the booth, will it affect your run after that?
*
I usually drank a lot during races, but that's just being me, i take my race easier..
I remember i drank 5 ~ 6 cups of fluid during one of the water station during last sunday's run..

but after that a bit bloated to run haha.. have to walk a bit

阿....

ah... reading here makes me want go bang my head....

my 10km never can achieve below 60mins.....
*
so far only did once, when i check back my gps data after run, there's a 10k session that i did 59:5x haha...
my fastest 10k race was like 63mins T_T

QUOTE(panasonic88 @ Sep 13 2012, 10:41 AM)
To achieve that, runners are running at < 6 min per km.

Can gurus share how to achieve that?

My usual time is 7 min per km, running at ease pace. I eagerly want to improve my timing. unsure.gif
*
if 7mins is ur comfort zone, meaning hardly break your sweat still can chit chat while u run, 6mins/km isn't that far away..

try do pyramid running..
start with 8min pace for 1km, 7:30 for 1km, 7:00 for 1km, 6:30 for 1km, 6:00 for 1km, 5:30 as long as u can hold on, then slow reverse back to 6:00, 6:30, 7:00, 7:30, 8:00 pace respectively..

Or do interval training
take a track eg:400m, for 300m go easy recovery run, 100m go as fast as u can until you are run out of breath, use the 300m easy run as recovery. Do set like 5.

Do hill repeats
Take a short hill, eg 100m hill, sprint ur way up, it will train ur strike gait, your core stability. But dont overdo it, will cause injuries.

I find above best to train speed and stamina, at least for me

Thanks for the tactic, vin_ann & Sky.Live.

By the way, I did a quick calculation based on Pyramid running, it seems to be lagi slower pulak tongue.gif

Averagely 7.45 min per km.

Good thing is, like you said, trainning speed & stamina.
*
I'm just giving an example, the point is that the slower pace in front to warm your muscle up, you can increase the pace all the way to 4:30 or even sub 4 mins pace..

Run in gym takes less effort than on the road, u shud run more on the road if u take part in races. then on the race day u will hv a target time to beat.

*
I disagree with that in certain circumstances, eg: run a marathon on threadmill, facing the wall, no music, no screen. Only bloody figure slowly clocking up to 42.195km !!

if u can do that marathon must be feeling easy for u..
Mental is harder to train than physical
