What's My Potential ?

Athletes often wonder how fast they can complete an Ironman run based on their open marathon time. I've heard people say you can take your open marathon time and add 20 minutes.

Using this logic, if my marathon time was four hours, adding 20 minutes would be equal to running 8.3% slower. But if my marathon time was three hours, adding 20 minutes would be equal to running 11% slower which means that adding 20 minutes isn't all that accurate.
