My Watch Paced Me To A Half Marathon PB

- Watches are getting smarter and smarter but did you know that some watches can use data to pace your race right to a personal best ?
It can be hard to get a new PB especially on a hilly course. Half of the battle is planning your pacing and trying to account for all that elevation, but what about if you handed over the planning to your watch?
Would running a PB be easier if you switch from thinking about your pacing to focusing on your running? Join the Running Channel’s Sarah as she lets her watch do the pacing and see if it helps her glide to a new personal record.

Currently training for 15K!
Training for 10km for end of Jan’22
Just signed up for the Doynton Hard Half (lots of hills, lots of mud) in the UK. Sounds like Sarah might not be keen on that one?!
Doing a 10 mile training plan atm!
Signed up for a 1/2 marathon in December. Probably not a PB, my last 1/2 was more than a decade ago! I'll be happy to complete.
I just ran my first 5K race yesterday and it was amazing!! I was going for a sub 35, but I finished in 29:35 minutes 😁😁
I think your times will continue to go down. Well done!
That's just so cool watching an actual "normal" runner on a running channel. Sarah you bring so much motiviation to people like us who can never compare to the "best ones" we usually see in those types of videos. Thanks for that, and big kudos for your PB :)
Its amazing how Sarah gives such good commentary whilst doing these efforts!
Thank you Sarah for always motivating us to achieve our crazy goals! Hope you enjoyed the day! You rock!
I love it when Sarah calls things DISGUSTING makes me smile every time. ❤️😍
Haha, was going to comment this
Good run
Everything just sounds better in English. She should do voice over her voice is so pleasant.
2 DISGUSTINGs in this episode!
Sarah's "let's do this" is going to be my go to motivation phrase at the start of my next races. So simple, yet so powerful💪
Will be running my first ever marathon in 2 weeks!! Been watching Sarah's marathon journey on repeat and it has been so so helpful
I’m just getting back into running, did it in high school, and even ran a few half marathon, and a marathon. Life happened and fell off the wagon. Started watching your training videos in July/August and it inspired me to get back into running! Got my first half marathon with me being back in action this weekend! Thanks for all you do at the Running Channel!
Great job Sarah! You’re a great addition to TRC. I remember when you came out from behind the scenes. It’s been fun watching you reach your goals!
Sarah: well done and thank you for being such a great coach and inspiration to us all!
I’ve got my first marathon in 2 months time, training has been such a tough journey but always feeling motivated after watching this channel, so thank you!!
Love your attitude! You really pushed through this run and deserved to get a new personal best! Congratulations Sarah 💖
Well done, the secret to long distance running and keeping it enjoyable is learning how to transfer from running to walking and back again. A very underrated skill, but for us non competitive runners, an essential skill.
Great tip, thanks Shaun!

Hi Sarah! Congratulations on your new PB! Pace Pro strategies def help a ton :D
I also ran a half marathon but by myself on 31st October 21, using pace pro strategy. My previous PB was 1:57:20, but this time I got 1:55:41 on the same course which has an elevation gain of 363m.
Go, Sarah! I’ve recently just started running again and watching the running channel’s videos really inspire me to keep going!
Starting to run this year, amazing to see Sarah's journey as someone who's struggling to get that mental game going. Seeing the honesty is a lot of help for me!
Great effort, running watches do make pb attempts so much easier to keep track of! I remember being fatigued and really struggling to do the basic maths...
This is cool. I bought my first running watch, a Garmin Forerunner 55, because of your video on following the watch training plan for 30 days. Now I'm going to give this feature a try.
LOVE this channel. Just started running again and watching your marathon videos as well as this one gives me something to strive for 🥰
It was so interesting to see this function in action and loved hearing all your thoughts during the run! I'm so happy you've successfully completed your half marathon, GO YOU!✨🙌🏻
Watches can only do so much; it's your legs that did the running Sarah!🏃
This is so cool! I'm just getting in to running and so far really enjoying it, thanks for all the tips from this channel :))
Congratulations Sarah!! You inspire me a ton! Looking forward to my first half (in over 10 years) this coming March and first marathon in Jan '23. Working up to it!
I recently discovered this channel and I must say it is addictive for all the right reasons! I've signed up for my first half marathon in April and your videos always give me lots of motivation to go out and run :) Thank you!
im signed up for my first half in april too. i dont usually run with anyone and this is my fist race ever, so the vibe may be weird, hopefully great though. whats your longest distance? ive done 15km nonstop on flat, or 19km walk/run up in the hills. so curious to see how i go!! good luck with your training
congrats on the pb even with a fall! i think we've all fallen while trail running, it's like a rite of passage. 😬
i struggle with pacing so this looks like exactly what i need!
Congratulations Sarah what a brilliant race! You did amazing!!
Hope your still celebrating xx
Once again, Sarah and the running channel team reminding me why I love running!! Will definitely be trying this feature
I currently haven't got anything in the calendar booked, but did a baseline parkrun this morning with the aim of improving that time over the winter, provided it doesn't become a mud bath!
as someone who is trying to run my first marathon watching Sarah’s journey has been SO motivational!!
You’re an inspiration Sarah, congrats lady! And that watch looks absolutely amazing, saving up for a Garmin watch of my very own because they just look so helpful and smart 💪🏻
Love this channel - never fails to put a smile on my face :) I usually watch one of your videos before I go out on a run
DID my first ever marathon 2 weeks ago in Lisbon! Amazing experience. Was hoping TO do sub 4. Ended up doing 4:03 . Proud of the accomplishments considering I had just recovered from covid 6 weeks prior. Next step is getting something on my wrist to get better at pacing🔥💪🏿
Pace pro looks interesting. I'm looking to get a 3:20 PB in my Marathon. Congratulations on getting your PB, I'm sure you'll do even better if you attempt this in a flat road race.
Well done! What a fabulous bit of kit, we all need that extra motivation every now and then !! Great idea!
Congratulations on the PB, especially on a demanding trail like this a great achievement. Love to see you vlogging more trail and ultrarunning challenges. Keep up the pace!
Good job. Falling when trail running is inevitable to happen at least once. You got a badge of honor. Training for a 50k currently.
All these features on watches these days are awesome. I've just got into running for the first time in 12 years, this is my first week outside of Couch to 5K, with an eye to doing an ultra next year.
You can do it!! I hope I see updates in the comments as you go through training!
Well done Sarah! Thanks for sharing your journey with us!
Loved this video! Great chat and an awesome PB. Congrats!
Great to see and hear "real" thoughts and emotions that we can relate to.
Yesterday I ran a full marathon solo because the event was cancelled. 1st half went okay then it all turned to custard! I don't know what failed first, my mind or my body. Barely running at the end, but still finished. Might have gone a bit fast at the start....

Exactly the same, mate - not just you.
"I was like 'Ooh, a trail half marathon. That sounds fun...' No! No!" - LOL Great job, Sarah :)
Sarah, it's always so much fun to watch you doing whatever you do. So uplifting. Great PB effort too, congrats!
Really great to see different functionalities of the Garmin series! I love my Forerunner 45 but looking forward to exploring different models in the future to see what they might do for my running! And well done Sarah!!
I love watching Sarah smash her goals, she's so motivating, so motivating in fact I'm now looking at half marathons to race soon. Thanks for the push!
Do it!! Then come back to this comment and update us all!! Half marathons get addictive ASF!! 🤣🔥
So interesting to follow Sarah’s progress over the last few months and over lockdown. Inspiring stuff. I love doing the maths doing a run as it keeps the brain active but to have something on my wrist being able to keep track of it sounds great
I love the fact that you're so real and honest! I'm always motivated and inspired by your videos. Beginner runner st 50y here.
Great running Sarah, loved watching your progress this year. Keep up the hard work 💪 👏
Walking is underrated. When I run 4 minutes and walk 30 seconds I run at faster pace overall than if I ran continuously.
Thanks for this comment! I'd been noticing that on strava, fellow MAF runners running far faster WITH walk breaks than without. I've just started experimenting to see if it works for me too, and today will be my 3rd test.
Generally speaking you'd be faster overall if you just did the running sections at a slower pace but continuously. That said, if you go slow enough your form starts to break down, and that actually could be less efficient than walking.
Your relentless positivity is an inspiration Sarah! Thanks for the smiles xx
Great job!!! These kind of videos are always inspiring and fun to watch!!
Have my first 5k tomorrow. God save me.
How did it go?
Amazing!! Your videos inspire me to get out more and push harder! Thank you!!
You are very inspirational, down to earth,great communicator,thanks so much for sharing with us!
Well done! I’m gonna run my first HM in 3 weeks. You guys are definitely pushing me forward and motivating me! Keep it going with the amazing videos!
another great vid, so glad this shows what running and attempting a PB really is like. Congrats
This channel really helps me stay motivated to tackle some new PBs! Sarah has such a great attitude!
Excellent work! Very motivational. I don’t seem to get better but these videos make me keep trying!
Sarah's positivity is so nice to watch!! I always feel so motivated watching her run!
Amazing Sarah!!! inspiring :-) been loving your videos, your energy is contagious
Well done Sarah! 👏 Thanks for explai ing the Pace Pro function it's one I haven't used yet but will absolutely try out now!
Nice job, Sarah! Great to PB on a tough course and also a great baseline for your future races when things get tough (again!).
Great Running Sarah, A Fantastic PB even with the fall, what a Brilliant Piece of Kit the Watch Is Just Awesome
Inspiring! Love the channel, great work guys 👏👏👏
Ohh, nice work! I'm really glad to see all your progress!
Sarah, I love watching your videos. I've learnt a lot from you. Well done on your PB.
Training for my first half marathon. Your videos have been very helpful and inspiring. Thanks!
Love seeing all the beautiful trails in the UK! You smashed this, Sarah!!
Excellent work! Thanks for the demo of Garmin Pace Pro. Makes me want to go out and run.
Well done Sarah! Keep it up, you‘re such a motivation!
Well done Sarah! Love theis channel! Trying to get back into running and after injury and blood clots and building up distance slowly but really going to need to work on pacing as it's been a couple of years since my last half marathon race! That pace pro sounds like a very useful tool! 😁🏃🏼♀️🏆
Amazing run, well done! Can definitely see PacePro coming in handy out in the hills - motivation to get out there for sure!
It's so inspiring to follow you Sarah! Well done!
Amazing job Sarah! That pace pro seems so good, especially on such a tough course! Smashed it!!!!
Fantastic effort Sarah, your positivity is great to see, well done!
Fantastic video! Massive well done to Sarah! Pace pro definitely something I would benefit from on my next race!
Always love your videos Sarah!
Fun video! I’ve watched it twice! Great work Sarah!!
It’s always inspiring to watch your videos guys. Keep it up
I’ve just signed up for my first marathon in April 2002, and your videos really inspire and motivate me! I loved watching your marathon training and this video was great, I’ll just watch these when I start my training for support! :)
Really enjoy your content, no sugar coating when you hurt you express it very useful for those of us who think we're the only ones that feel like quitting.
Inspirational how you keep going!!!
Thanks
Well done, Sarah! Training for my first HM as well at the end of the year - will be getting a PB no matter what!
Sarah, you are doing great ... I love your honesty through it all!
Absolutely love all these videos!
I really appreciate your honest commentary. Also, love that you fell down, got back up, and still smashed your pb!
I really enjoy seeing you take every challenge with a smile on your face and a positive attitude. Keep it up sarah
Congrats on your PB Sarah! You’re always an inspiration!
Set a 1/2 PB by 2 mins two weeks ago, trying to top it again next weekend in Disney World. This channel is great with tips and motivation. Great job and great video, Sarah!
Thanks for the video. Inspires me for my first marathon coming in April!
Great job!! You should be proud! I love your videos , you always make me feel like I can do my runs too!
Thanks for the tutorial, I have wondered how it works. Need to use more of those wonderful Garmin features
Great channel always help me get motivated!
Well done Sarah! So inspiring!
Your continued positive attitude is a massive boost to those who might have lost their mojo, like me. Thanks very much for the push to get up and out amongst it again!
Well done, Sarah. Quite impressed with the accuracy of the watch's pace setting especially given that you were running on grass and at elevations. i am injured at the moment so can't run but I do like your videos as you're not afraid to share on camera the struggles you face (that we all face!) at times. Keep on inspiring us.
Excellent video, I'm currently working towards a half marathon for Spring next year. These videos keep me motivated :)
Its so much fun to watching Sarah 😁, love the commentary 😄
Well done on your PB Sarah! You have inspired me to give trail running a go!
Well done to you Sarah! I did a half back in August - wasn't a PB, but I had a lot of fun doing it. Thinking about doing the same course next year with proper training!
Great video, love the enthusiasm. Having the tech take on the task of calculating pace adjustments sounds fantastic, would leave me to concentrate on the actual running!
