I am a female almost 36 years old and I just completed my first half marathon. I ran it in 2 hours and 33 minutes (11.5 minute miles). My only goal was to stay at a slow jog through the whole race slowing down to walk only long enough to hydrate.
30 minutes.
it depends
if its your goal
A brisk walk is about 4MPH, it would take 3hrs 18minutes at that pace.
He finished in a time of 03:31:15
Yes, you must be Speedy Gonzales so complete such a run in that time ;) keep up the good work and get back to us if you finish in a shorter time! WE CAN MAKE YOU FAMOUS! X
Robin Quivers finished the 2010 NYC Marathon in 6 hours and 9 minutes.
In US marathons held during 2012, the average finish time for men was 4:18. The average finish for women was 4:43.

Yes, it is. Running on a treadmill will certainly help, but treadmills don't have the incline variability of natural terrain, so your body won't be prepared to run the half-marathon. Training on a treamill is a great way to prepare for a mini marathon. It would also be a good idea to get some actual track time in if possible.
A negative split in a marathon is where you run the first half or maybe even the first 10 miles of the race slower than your goal pace. Then the last half of your marathon, you pick up the pace, running faster than your goal pace to make up for the lost time from running slower in the first half of the race. This is a good technique to running a marathon because since it is such a long distance you conserve a lot of energy in the first half, and save it for the last part of the race. Running slower then faster than your goal pace will still get you your goal time if done correctly, you are just running in a different way.
