im a rising senior with a 4:36 mile and went 17 flat last year in xc. this past weekend i ran about a 10:15 2 mile at around 4000 feet elevation on a semi hilly course. been running 40-50 miles all around 6:40 pace with one workout during the week. what do you predict i will be around by the end of the season in late october? thanks in advance.
prolly low 16s with that 2 mile time. On a flat course you'll be there.
Don't run XC if all you care about is your PRs though. XC is for racing other people in the current conditions, track is about reaching your full potential
16:34
gotcha i was hoping for a 16:15 or so... but yes you are correct i do need to focus on the racing and the times will come... oh and i ran 16:59 on an extrmely humid day in early july if that counts for anything hahah
