Sub 17:00 Goal Thread

Hey, I'll be a Junior this year, goal is sub 17 as well.

PRs are:

18:1x 5k

12:0x 3200 (have said 12:2x before, but just saw the real time yesterday)

5:00.xx 1600

2:17.xx 800

58.79 400 (split)

28.xx 200 (freshman year)

My thread I just started with my current training is at

http://www.letsrun.com/forum/flat_read.php?thread=8336227&page=1

5k: 18:19

3200: 11:26 (ran once solo)

1600: 4:56

800: 2:11

400: 58.7

Oops, forgot a log. Weekly mileage has been 36, 40, 43, 46, 50, 53, 56, 51 (last week had more intense runs). Longest run 11 mi ending in 6:25ish.

400m: 51

800m: 1:57

Never actually raced a longer distance, been training well all summer and running a 3200m tt tomorrow.

Also hoping for sub 17/ mid 16s

Sophomore year times:

5k XC - 17:16

1600 - 4:38

800- 2:05

Junior Goals:

5k XC - 16:20

1600 - 4:25

800- 1:57

Getting up to mid 40 mile weeks, going to be hitting 50 by preseason.

Gonna be a senior

59/2:12/5:02/17:55

Goals are 55/2:05/4:40/16:59

Been doing 50-60 plus more sprints and strides

I'm going to be a senior.

Goals: xc: 16:59

Track: 54/1:59/4:28/9:59 3k SC

Prs: xc: 17:40

Track: 56.1/2:06/4:50(ran once early in season)

I've been so unlucky during spring track and haven't run to my potential. This year I got a freak heel injury when I fell doing the 400mH so I didn't get to run during championship season. I'm pretty confident I could have gone 2:03/4:38.

I'm finishing up a 48 mile week and plan on getting up to 55-60, then maintaining 45-50 in season.

Goos luck to everyone, I hope we all get that sub 17

Goals:

5k - 17:00

3200 - 10:30

1600 - 4:50

800 - 2:10

400: 60

PRs:

5k - 18:02

3200 - 10:56

1600 - 5:03

800 - 2:16

400 - 64

Going to be a senior. PRs are

5k - 17:47

800 - 2:03

400 - 53

Running 25-30 mpw, expecting to get up to 35-40. I'm super injury-prone, so I really have to be careful upping mileage. Currently about in the shape I was at the end of last XC season, so:

Goal for XC: mid 16s for 5k

I'll hop on into this group.

Current PRs:

5K: 18:17

3200m: 11:11

1600m: 4:53

800m: 2:07

400m: 52.6

Finished off this week at around 45 miles, looking forward to maintaining around this range, perhaps peaking at 50, before my season begins in three weeks.

Gonna be a senior, 17:30 is probably a more realistic goal but sub-17 is a reach goal.

PRs:

5k: 18:30.xx

3200: 11:30.xx (never had a good race)

1600: 5:13.xx

Running 60 MPW currently after building all summer from 40 mpw. Gonna run 60 for a few more weeks and then run mid-50s for most of the season I think.

Lets get it boys

Goal: sub 16:40

5k: 17:45

3200m: 10:45

1600m: 5:05 (indoor)

800m: 2:30

400m: 1:16

Nice to see all the responses!! Good luck to everyone, and continue to update us every once in a while, especially afer a race.

I wanted to update you guys about last week

Mon- 6.66 mi easy, 4 fast strides= 6.96 mi

Tues- AM- 1 mi wu, 20 min tempo on the track- hit 6:08 pace. Felt good, not pushing much at all until the last 200m or so; legs did not really burn. 4x200m- 34, 33, 34, 33. 1.5 mi cd= 6.25 mi PM- 3.82 mi easy

Wed- 6.11 mi easy

Thurs- AM- 3.54 mi easy PM- 7.00 mi easy

Fri- 6.57 mi incl. 8x10 second hill sprints

Sat- 10.17 mi 7:23 pace. Last 2 mi 7:05, 6:39. Felt nice

Sun- 6.61 mi easy

Weekly mileage= 57.03 mi

This was my highest mileage week ever and it felt great. The doubles felt good. My previous 2 weeks were 48.5 and 50.4. This week will be a down week with 44ish miles, then back to 55 then 60.

Last xc season I peaked too early and was fried by championship season, so this year I am going to stay within myself during workouts and only race hard once a week (we have 2 meets a week). I'll just tempo the other race.

I'd like to hear how everyone else's training has been going.
