Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Applying a bit more weighting to training pace, I get these results for Icemaiden's 2:02 -

CASE 1 PREDICTS 01:57:00
CASE 2 PREDICTS 01:51:10
CASE 3 PREDICTS 01:58:38
CASE 4 PREDICTS 02:04:51
CASE 5 PREDICTS 02:08:01

losing the 1:45, and tightening things up.

If I apply the same weights back to Nelly's marathon, I get:

CASE 1 PREDICTS 03:26:27
CASE 2 PREDICTS 03:28:12
CASE 3 PREDICTS 03:46:37
CASE 4 PREDICTS 03:49:20
CASE 5 PREDICTS 03:27:10

so that's a re-ordering of the ones we'd already seen.

I'm definitely definitely going back to code in the new scoring method for the 'speedwork' attribute now.

By the way... if I get this right, imagine how much fun I'm going to have improving the betting game :-)

If I could train a minute a mile faster then I would expect my HM to improve by at least a minute a mile too because I do my training using the HR mantra of long slow miles at sub 70% WHR. So how does the training predict the outcome? I'm still not sure I know where you're going with this yet.

No, there's too many numbers - the stuff at the top says you're trying to make a training plan generator which is why I mentioned 'the button' as meaning at some point one will be able to say something along the lines of - I am running xx race in yy weeks, I want to run zz time and I can train a times per week, press the button and abracadabra there's your plan. So I am not sure how finding 5 other people who run HMs in the same time with the same training schedule is going to help us get to how I should train for my next HM (assuming there is one).

IM - there's too much for me to precis,but if you want an overview of CBR and prepared to do a bit of reading, try here: en.wikipedia.org

Colette - I'll have a look at the stuff I was doing the other day, but your recent training includes a long run of 9.36 miles in 1hr33 - if you can do a few more of those in the next month or so before Wokingham, and maybe inch up to 10-11 mile long runs, I reckon you're in a good position.

Anyone around who'd like to be my guinea pig for the next 20 mins? Ideal if you've got a decent bit of training/race data recorded.
