If you’re training for London, forget the average. Aim for a time that makes you smile. Maybe that’s 4:59:59 to avoid the five-hour club. Or maybe it’s 5:30 with a pint at mile 23.
What’s the average time? It’s a starting point. A conversation starter. But the real answer? It’s the time that makes you say, “I did that.” And that’s always faster than zero.
So lace up, ignore the stats, and run your own race. The coffee’s on me when you’re done. Just don’t ask about my average—it’s classified. 🏃♂️☕
