To the seven hills for the new record - Zevenheuvelenloop 2019

Disclaimer: Automatically translated from Russian Zevenheuvelenloop, which means “ Running through seven hills ” - a race in which I participated in 2016 year and where I decided to go this year for the new PB. Mental preparation began with the calculation of target time and pace. Based on the following data: current PB at 10 km - 36:24 (tempt 3:38 min / km), PB at the half marathon 1:19:55 (tempt 3:47 min / km), that is, in theory, it should cope with an average pace of 3:47 min / km, which corresponds to target time 55:30.

Run on seven hills - Zevenheuvelenloop, November 20, 2016

Disclaimer: Automatically translated from Russian Zevenheuvelenloop is one of the largest mass races in the Netherlands, which has been held in Nijmegen since 1984 and which must have been tried. The 15-kilometer asphalt track is certified by the IAAF and despite being through several hills (Zeven heuvelen loop can be translated as “ seven hill run ”), is very fast. In 2009, the Tirunesh Dibaba Ethiopian set a world record for women here - 46:29 (currently improved), and in 2010, the Kenyans Leonard Patrick Komon set a world record for men here - 41:13, which still holds.
