This is the first year my annual average pace has slowed since I started recording GPS data...and I began the year far faster than I ended it. This is the second consecutive year my total mileage has declined. I am definitely concerned because I read somewhere that the average age a marathoner peaks is 38.
That said, I still believe I can improve my pace. After all, I have not been running all of my life...and I recorded official personal bests in the 10Km and both the half and full marathon this year. I would love to get my annual average down to 8:00 per mile, but that will require a lot of effort. At the moment, I am having issues averaging 9.
