BQ Pace in a Half Marathon

Anytime I want to calculate pace, I use the pace calculator over at Cool Running.

According to it, I need a 7:17 average pace in a marathon to post a 3:10:59. In my mind, I will tell myself I need a 7:10 or so. A 7:10 average pace in a half marathon leads to a time of 1:33:57.

My pie-in-the-sky goal for the Berry Half is now sub-1:34. If I can hit that, my confidence going into a fall BQ would be sky-high.
