Update to the 1k, yesterday I ran a 4:17, which is not good, but today I ran a 4:03! Hoping to run a sub-4 this weekend.

Well 300 miles this summer and races are catching up to me. I’ve been taking it easier, multiple rest days simply so my Achilles pain doesn’t turn into bad tendinitis.

If you can run a mile in around 8 minutes, take you pace from that, and increase it by 15%.

Today was the worst day of the season. Sprints. 400, 200, 100. 4 sets. It sucked. A lot.

I did a 5K today time was roughly 39:30

I did a 3.5 mile progressive workout in 24:24. The last half mile was rough but I was sub-6 pace for it, which is my goal for races.

I noticed today that my watch is saying I could run 5km in 15:22, it's the first time I have ever noticed it saying that I could run a time faster than I actually have! I have no idea how it predicts things like that though.

Dude 15:22 would be like really good where I live.

Also guys I almost broke 18 for a 5k. I got 18:01. If I hadn't slowed down so much for mile 3 I could have done it. I really need to work on the mental side of things.

If it's Garmin then it's always ridiculously fast
Edit- Saw how fast you are, maybe it is realistic

Nah the Garmin race predictor sucks. It has my 5k race prediction over a minute slower than what I run.

For my first few months with it, it was saying stuff like that but recently it's flipped

Chat we pulled off the sub-18 with a 17:57 for a 5k

Coming off of injury and lost fitness I ran 19:54 in the 3 mile. First mile was good 5:50 but then I cramped. Really, really bad. Oh well I have another race Tuesday and I’m happy I’m no longer injured.

Hilly 5K tomorrow. I'm just hoping for a solid placement to help me qualify for Sectionals(aka Divisionals, Regionals whatever you wanna call it).

 

[Cubinginatree]

Turns out race was only 3 miles. I ran 19:18 which is 6:26 mile pace. I was 41 overall and 6th on my team. I still am not back at my peak fitness but I’ll get there .
