Generally speaking, on a century you will likely slow down during the second half. If you can average 20 mph for the first half, you might be looking at 18 mph for the second half.

But of course there are a lot of variables. A strong wind on the way back could slow your average to 12 mph. Not eating properly or selecting the wrong pair of shorts could have you stopping every few miles to rest.
