I am wondering what a solid 8k ttime would be based off my current fitness. I am recently coming off of two injuries that had me out for 6 weeks and have been cross training. I recently ran a 2:07 800 and 4:42 mmile last cross season I averaged 50 miles a week and it was my first real season. I am wondering what an ideal 8k at my current fitness would be.
I think that you can run around 27:15-27:30 on a good day. Your 800 time doesn't really tell me anything because is only 10% of the race distance. A 5k would give you a better idea.
27:30 is a good short term goal.
Actually your 800 is quite helpful... good luck w the comeback.
