Due to bad weather we have not yet raced.
Time trialed 2:31 a few days ago. (72/79)
Ran 6x 600 in 2:05 today. (4 min recovery).
Mileage 30-35 mpw.
Current 400 time: 64
Yes, I am a girl.
What can I do in a race next week?
What is my potential over the next 6 weeks?
based on your 400 time, around 2:20.

The TT and the 400 time make me think 2:22-2:24
Also a female that is coming back from a stress fracture.
Ran a 59.5 last week from purely pool workouts (since Feb) and 8 miles of running (first time Feb) that week
PR is a 2:10 from a few years ago
What do you think I can run in my season debut in the 800 this weekend?
Do you realistically believe I can run a 2:11/2:10 by the end of May?
you should stop trying so hard
Well, Bungei ran 1:42xx and he ran 6 x 600 averaging 1:27, so I bet you could run 2:28 right now.
Thanks.
Is it better to try to bring my 400 time down to 62-63? Or work on stamina and try to slow down less in the second lap?
Both, I assume. Any suggestions?

I would say your speed is better than your endurance so maybe work on the endurance primarily/initially?
Slightly longer reps?
Did the time trial and 6 x 600 come from your coach? If you have a coach, best thing is just do the training your coach gives you and race well.
No one knows for sure how you will grow and improve. Your mileage is fine for a 400-800 type. You are correct that getting faster at 400 and improving stamina are both important for the 800.
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
I’m a D2 female runner. Our coach explicitly told us not to visit LetsRun forums.
