Positive split because I freaked out passing 2 miles at a pace I never thought possible, then sort've stopped racing protecting myself, thinking I'd blow up at any moment as PR before this was 14:52 -
4:34
9:10 (4:36)
13:52 (4:42)
:35
14:28.27 Indoors
I ran a positive split race, my previous PR had been two years earlier so I just went for it and ended up PRing in the two mile and 5k haha. But I split 4:52-5:02-5:11-27 for my 5k time of 15:32
3:10-3:20-3:20-3:20-3:00 (60s last 400)
Strong anaerobically, weak aerobically. Hardest were k2-4.
Fancy finding this thread, as I just ran a PR on the roads today. My race was a slight negative split, although mile 2 was slow due to it being uphill.
5:03
5:09 (10:12)
5:01 (15:13)
:27 for the final .1 (15:40)
Slight positive.
But most of my 5ks are even until mile 2 and then a massive positive split mile 3. Slight positive was pretty good for me
Positive with ever PR.
4:25, 4:29, 4:33.
No way I could negative split a pr. Always wondered and admired how some can do that
Jeez my dude, why go out this hard?
5:25, 5:19, and 5:55 for the last 1.1mi (5:22 pace) for a 16:39 on a xc course. Small negative split. Had run the course several times before and run pretty decent positive splits, so I know it wasn’t just because of the course.
All my PR's were even splits unless it was a hilly course. On flat courses my miles didn't differ any more than 5-6 seconds. I always ran every race mile to mile. A 5K was three one mile races, a marathon twenty six one mile races. I never thought beyond the mile I was running, but then again I was never very fast. 17 minutes for 5K, 36 minutes for 10K , 1:19;50 for a half marathon. That was about it. In the '70s & '80s I was lucky to finish in the top 10-15% of the field and never placed in my age division.
bump
My 5k PR came from a positive split.
Anything over a mile is really hard to negative split, maybe thats just me?
4:41.7, 4:41.5, 4:39.6, 32
