I know... not much time to do anything special to prepare for the 21 k now.
The "split scheduling" is a difficult one. But I`ll give it a try:
10 k: 46 min
15 k: 1h 8 min
18 k: 1h 22 min
21 k: sub 1.35
I think this may be a decent plan, as this is a tougher route than street half maratons. I`ve been told that you should expect to run it approximately 10 minutes slower than a street half marathon.
have a look at the route here, if you like:

As you will see the first 5 k are up hill.
Do you think my splits look reasonable? :mmm:
And by the way: What do you think of sessions like these:
1) hill intervals (not sure what length, maybe up to 1 k?)
2) intervals that are longer than 2k (e.g. 3 x 3 k)
These are both tips I`ve received from another more experienced runner, so I thought about maybe doing one of them today
