My best and only second time of covering that distance is 2:29:43. I never intend beating it. Just to get there again will be an achievement.
And now that I prefer the trails as opposed to road running that time will be longer when I do get there.

Could not agree more. Running is so individual in all aspects that arbitrary times or distances or whatever usually ranks somewhere between pointless and hurtful. People just gotta run - it's so fun when there's not unnecessary pressure

So, I'm going to show off a bit but my first half marathon was Enschedenin April 2025 and I managed to churn out 1:40:49. I did proper training though starting in January which helped a lot.

I would say beginners ought to shoot for 3 hour finish time.
