My goal is a top five finish next year.
To have come fifth this year I'd have needed a total time of 3:42.
I'm confident that I can cycle that in one hour thirty without going into the red/burning myself up, which means that the run needs to happen in 2:12.
If I had hit threshold off the line on the ride (aka Team Creeping Death tactics) then I reckon I could take ten minutes or so off that cycle, but safer to peg it at 1:30 for planning purposes.
Plus of course I do need to do the whole ride, rather than missing a bit.
Anyway, a 1:20 half marathon sounds rather intimidating.
