Well, good luck, anyway. My sister in law won one last year in Darlington, I think, in a time of about 26 minutes, whilst pregnant!
Well done, Greg. I'm feeling inspired for my own intervals tonight.

Attempted Tempo last night but overcooked it a bit, and frankly with the stress of resigning recently, and my right leg seizing up I only did 1m wu/wd with 1m fast in between, still it was 6:54 pace which is fast for me. Best ever was 6:41

No, there's even video evidence of her great victory on the internet somewhere. Her 3 year old was very impressed that mummy won 'pwoperly', rather than some rubbish 3rd lady or whatever.

Wow Jolguk! Impressive!
Yes Greg, well done BUT run harder next time! You CAN do it mister!
Maybe just try a mile or a 1k as fast as you can go to build your confidence?

Greg, I have found confidence wise, it has been a good idea to try and do a mile flat out which for me last night was pretty close. eg - 7:00 pace. then try some tempo runs at 20-30s slower. Which should feel like an easier run.
For me that would be 7:20 pace or my 5k PB. Come race day I am sure I will go under it. build it up as well. My 5k is in 5 weeks. So next week my flat out session will hopefully be 1.5m at 7:00 pace or as close to. Then 2 weeks later 2m, then another 2 weeks and 2.5m, and finally Race day and a huge PB hopefully.
outside of that I will be doing the usual LSRs and recovery runs.
