Is there anyone here who is into running, particularly long distance running?  I'm mostly into weight-lifting, martial arts and sword fighting but I have been putting more of an emphasis on endurance training recently.

I signed up for the Louisville Triple Crown recently which consists of three races.  A 5K run(3.1 miles), a 10 K run(6.2 miles) and a 10 mile run.

I have completed the first two runs and only the 10 mile remains.  Also, I intend to register for the Louisville half-marathon(13.1 miles) which takes place on the 23rd of this month.

My time on the 5K was 22:18(It was a bad day where I only had an hour of sleep.  Last year I ran one in 20:58)

My time on the 10K was 43:13

My question is should I run at the same pace for the 10 miler as I did in the other races?  I felt exhausted by the end of the 10 K so I'm thinking that perhaps I should pace myself a little slower since it's longer distance.  Also, I have heard people say that running while leaning forward a bit makes things a bit easier.  I can't tell one way or the other but perhaps I would notice in a long distance race.

I want to at least be able to finish before an hour and twenty minutes.

Also, I should add that a good portion of this race is uphill.  Is there any kind of running style I should stick with when running uphill?

Thanks, I've heard others suggest the semi-crouching technique. I have two more days before the race and I will need at least one day to rest completely before the race takes place. Today is my last day of training then, I think I'll practice some incline running on the treadmill.

Perhaps some supplements would help. Try creatine.
