Paula Radcliffe is running the New York marathon on Sunday. Me too. The only difference is that she should be done about an hour before me (totally unfair!), at an average pace close to 5min30 per mile.

So, I wanted to know how long I could last at her speed on a treadmill afterwards. I'm thinking (aggressively) 10 minutes. That's going to be almost 2 miles at that speed. I have done it a for a mile in the past, but I wasn't in any state to even speak or move after that for another 5 minutes.

Let's see if the recent training is paying off. (Obviously, I won't try this during the race, but around Xmas, or early 2010, once my body will have had the time to recover from the marathon).

In the meantime, Go Paula!!
