Breaking the Marathon Wall: My Plan to Start Slow and Finish Strong

After 15 marathons, I’m finally tackling a race strategy that’s always felt a bit alien to me: starting slow. In this episode, I reflect on my last few underwhelming marathon performances and why I think my usual “go out hard, hang on for dear life” approach might not be working any more. I dive into the pros and cons of different marathon strategies pacing yourself from the start, negative splits, and more and explain why I’m now convinced that holding back in the first few miles could be the key to avoiding that dreaded wall at mile 20. Join me as I lay out my plan for my next marathon, fuel tactics, and why sometimes changing your approach is the smartest move. If you’ve struggled with hitting the wall or are curious about marathon pacing, this one’s for you!
