    Ughhhhh..... was really looking forward to my 24km LSR all week.

    Had to do a few doubles at work (sick staff so I needed to cover)

    Now I'm off to bed as the only time I'll squeeze it in is before work in the morning.

    Ah well.... I guess life gets in the way at some stage for everyone.

    Did you go all out or was it a LSR ? I did a 17m today at a similar pace as a LSR.

    2 hrs 20 min or 220 min (3hrs 40 min)?

    Either way there is no answer to your question. One person's ceiling is another person's floor. It depends on your ability and what you are aiming for.

    He/she has done a 1/2 in about 2 hrs so I presume its 2 hrs 20 mins.

    2 hours 20 minutes would be much too fast for a 16 mile run, if you are a 2 hour half-marathon runner.
    and 2.25 is probably too fast for you, rom, for a 17 mile run!

    may i stick in and seek some advice/comments about drink?
    1. at what distances are the 10 water stations?
    2. i'm told there are only 3 isotonic drinks stations at miles 9,12,16. Could someone recommend methods for isotonic/electrolyte intake before miles 9 and after 16? appreciate as many comments as possible.

    All details are on the course map attached.

    http://dublinmarathon.ie/map-2011.pdf

    The water will be in small 300ml bottles and the isotonic drinks will be spar brand.

    Most people will carry their own gels that they will take throughout the race. You should have experience taking these on your longer runs to know they will not have an adverse affect on your stomach.

    To add to Pistol's post.

    Get a hydration belt with a few bottles on it!

    a quick question if i may. ..

    my plan for this week is 5m easy, 8m PMP, 5m easy and 16 LSR, but i have an opportunity to run a 4m race tomorrow instead of the 8m PMP, which would be more beneficial to me at this stage of the training...

    Thanks for all the advice to date, it really does help!!!

    Swings and roundabouts I think, the more racing experience you have the better but if your recovery prevents you completing other elements of your training that's a problem.

    If you have a 4 mile pb then running this one will show your increase in fitness/endurance and that will give you confidence that you're on the right track. I hope my non committal answer helps :D
