So if you pick a race with an odd distance, like 3.71 miles, it'll compare it against itself Probably best used to look at your upcoming races, and see how your training measures up against what you've already done. Bear in mind that the graphs you see for your future race are based on the time period up to race day - so some of the graphs will tail off alarmingly

Now then that just got me wondering if you could then use it to line up training in this block versus training in a pb block (say 12 weeks previous) to spit out how well you might do at an upcoming race? Not sure that makes total sense, but hopefully you can see where I am coming from? Shame I only started adding training recently - will have to run some more races to do some proper comparisons!

Badger Sep 2012 11:12am, 28 Sep 2012 3,443 posts	Quote Pin Badger Herman, my 10k PB turns out to have been on more than double the volume of my second best time. I thought I was training for a marathon, turns out I was doing really good preparation for a 10k a month after that
Curly45 Sep 2012 11:13am, 28 Sep 2012 1,137 posts	Quote Pin Curly45 Yes, but based off training rather previous race times. We all know that input should equal output, but that there is a delay in this process which appears to be variable for each person so I am thinking it would be interesting to compare this prediction with the actual result later. Maybe calling it prediction is a step too far though, more like suggested time range based on training over the last 12 weeks and then you can bung the reigel value prediction into the same page and pull off a neat little pacing strategies page based on race elevation? (excuse me I think I just had a nerdgasm)

Badger Sep 2012 11:29am, 28 Sep 2012 3,444 posts	Quote Pin Badger It was great! I was very disappointed with the marathon time, knocking more than a minute of a 10k time I hadn't been able to get near for years thoroughly made up for it.
