    I recently did a 5x1k, 200m rest (no more than 2 minutes each rep) with the following splits:

    3:35, 3:29, 3:24, 3:24 and 3:25.

    My next race is on November 11th (5k road race) and my question is whether sub 19 minutes is a realistic goal for the next race or too conservative of one? my current 5k pr is 19:10.

    I think 17:40 is realistic. Sub-19, absolutely.

    You should be able to run 17:30 off of that. If you want to play it safer, you can but no reason not to take some serious time off of your 19:10.
