The study showed how finish time changes with temperature, and the results are shown in the following graph.
This graph works well for runners finishing the race at 3 hour pace or faster, but that excludes the majority of marathon runners. How can we extend this to slower runners?
The approach I've taken is to assume the decline is linear from the end points of each curve, as shown by the colored lines. This will give us a projection of performance decline and I’ve created a table at the end of this page based on this assumption.
