I'm getting close to cracking the magic sub 20 mins...20m:27s last weekend. If all goes to plan I'll have another crack at it again this weekend...and maybe, just maybe...this could be the weekend

Hollywoof!
I'm debating how fast to try to run tomorrow - suspect it's a little too soon after Leicester to do too much... also I think the bike and nice weather are calling me... maybe in another week or two...
SODIron - what is FSTT?

followed rach's advice and did a 5 x 1km session today.
actually i did 2 x 400m flat out first (trying to find out if i would completely embarrass myself in the local open meet - answer - yes i would) then 5 x 1km off 60 second recoveries in 4.26/4.31/4.31/4.27/4.28
so a question for next time. should i try and do the reps a bit quicker or should i shorten the rests even further - 60 seconds seems to be enough time to get breathing under control and heart rate back down but i suspect anything much shorter would be very hard.

Well done M
depends how how you felt at the end of the session.
If you felt you could go on another rep, then may be go for 4:20 - 4:25
otherwise stick with it for a week or 2 and then speed up - don't reduce the rests yet. Though there is a good session where you reduce the rests by 15 secs after each rep - DON'T TRY THAT ONE YET

hi mark
i couldn't have done another lap today. but without the 2 x 400m first i'm sure i would have been able to. so i'll give 4.20 - 4.25 a go next time.
thanks for your help

I'm doing a one mile time trial today - anyone know what a good mile time would be in regard to doing 5K sub 20? I'm guessing around 6 minutes or so. I think 5K pace needs to be around 6:25.

I did a 6.50 mile in a 1 mile race yesterday ElSombrero - which would be a 22.30 5k - so you need to be looking at possible a sub 6 maybe??
