Dec 11 - 4x1600 with 400 jog rest. (4:48, 4:47, 4:45, 4:39)
Dec 8 - 20x200 with 200 jog rest. (Averaged 28 high.)
Dec 5 - 800,4x400. 800 jog after the 800. 400 jog after the 400s. (2:09.15, 57.81, 60.59, 57.71, 56.45)
Dec 2 - 3x1600 with 800 jog rest. (4:46,4:44,4:42)

Nov 25 - 20x400 with 200 jog rest. (Averaged 66)
I say 4:15, also sub 15 for 5k.
4:15 for mile I meant, so 3:57-8 for the 15
Idiotic prediction. 3:46-3:49 1500m

Last season I ran 3:57 off of threshold work, and not a single 200 faster than 30 seconds (I'm a 10k guy). Your prediction is a little off. He is probably much closer to the 3:50 range.
This is THE Ian Edwards we're talking about.
4:40 for 1500, your leg will probably act up and you'll have to stop to stretch
assuming those 200s were close to all-out, shouldn't a 3:40-hi guy be able to crack 26 for at least a couple of them? OP what's your 800m pr? i'll say 3:58...unless you are a low 1:5X 800m runner, then i'd say 3:53.

My guess would be anywhere between 3:53-3:58.
you don't do all out 200's with 200 rest. 6x200 with 200 rest is more like ~3 seconds slower than all out if it's an actual workout (and not just an easy day with a bit of speed at the end).
I say 3:50 for 1500
Maybe 3:45, I don't know, the last two workouts are a lot better than all the other ones.

345? Eh, you'd have to be able to run a lot faster than 66s on 20x400 if you were going to do that. In college, I did an idiotic workout of 50x400 once off 45-60 seconds rest with all of them in 66-68 and I definitely wasn't a 345 guy.
Those 6x200 were almost all-out, well as close as you can get to all-out with 200 recovery.
I'm def not a speed guy.
My 1500 pr from 2 years ago is 4:02. Thats the last time I raced it.
Yes Ian, you're a distance guy and you won't get under 25 seconds for 200 but you can run under 3.50 for 1500 in 2013
1:49.9
and
3:52
or, you're working out too hard.
Those times aren't compatible for a distance runner, not even close.
those 200's workout don't tell us shit, I hold my position for 3:57.

Eventually I should be able to be under 25 for 200. Maybe not this coming track season, but eventually. I didnt say I could get under 3:50 this season. That'd would be a miracle.
Also, I do probably work out too hard.
And what are some good prediction workouts for the 1500?
how fast did you do the jog rest? It makes a big difference whether you were barely moving at 10:00 pace or keeping up a decent 7:00 pace jog

Super slow. Probably slower than 10:00 pace. Didnt time it though.
