I have PR's of 10:15, 4:48, and 2:16, (3200, 1600, and 800 respectively) so I'd guess I am a more endurance-based runner.
Been running 60-70 miles a week for a while now, with long runs of 15-18 miles. It is a huge goal of mine to break 10 minutes in the 3200, but I have gotten so close every season and I am never able to do so. Do you guys (whether you actually broke 10 or not) have any advice for a runner like me on how to actually do this?
Just a legit response here. You should be able to run sub 10 just off 60-70 miles per week and no workouts. But tips I would give. 1- get rid of long run and replace with a run that is faster than your regular runs. 2- 400 repeats at mile pace with 400 jog 3- 800 repeats at 2:30 with 3 mi rest 4- cut mileage to 40-50 mpw

Don't do 18 mile long runs lmao. DUDE your 800 is really bad for your abilities, Work on your speed. That's your limiting factor, not endurance.
I would tend to agree.
Can we get an update on OP if he broke 10 and what his current PR is now???
Got my base miles in winter of sophomore year and broke it at my first meet.
I had trained all winter long before sophomore year track. I couldnt wait for my first few races.
I ran 4:43 for the mile on on a 160yd, 11 laps to the mile indoor track. The following Friday I ran 9:50.25 to break 10 minutes in the 2-Mile, this time on a 176yd, 10 laps to the mile indoor track.
How did I break 10:00 in the 3200? I ran a eight consecutive laps that averaged a little under 75 seconds per lap.
It's been 5 years....I wonder if he broke 10:00?

10:15 two miler and you're running 15-18 mile runs? WTFITMWY?
You can't figure this out? Its not rocket surgery.
Don't focus on time goals, focus on competitive goals.
1. Make a list of
1a. everyone who beat you
1b. everyone you beat.
2a. Your goal is to beat everyone who previously beat you
2b. Your goal is to keep everyone you've beaten in their effing place.
You're very welcome.
ambot lang
I first did it by running the first two miles of a 5K race in under 10 minutes, which means I ran 3200 m in less than 10 minutes.
