No one will be right on with that chart, it's a guide for getting started I guess, but everyone will vary on their overall pace because their runs and walks can be much faster or slower than what chart equates too. I can do the :90/:30 and hit 9:30/mile easily so it all just varies on the person and what they are pacing during their runs & walks.I wasn't knocking Galloway, just the 30/30, 60/30 ratio for 4:30-5:00 finish times.
The chart posted here doesn't jive with his program.
From the Galloway WDW Training Program on the runDisney website:
Run-walk-run ratio should correspond to the pace
used. Here are suggested strategies:
9 min/mi: run 4 minute/walk 1 minute (4/1)
10 min/mi: 3/1
11 min/mi: 2:30/1
12 min/mi: 2/1
13 min/mi: 1/1
14 min/mi: 30 seconds/30 seconds
15 min/mi: run 30 seconds/walk 45 seconds, or run 20
seconds/walk 40 seconds
16 min/mi: run 20 seconds/walk 40 seconds
17 min/mi: run 15 seconds/walk 45 seconds
