Ok, bit of background:
Been injured recently, but have put together about 6 weeks of training, pretty much base stuff.
I'm 17, best 5k was 17:49, ran the 1500m and 800m in the summer (2:11, 4:24).
Training weeks have looked like this:
1. 29 miles, no workouts, 7 mile long run.
2. 34 miles, no workouts, 8 mile long run.
3. 36 miles, one workout, 8 mile long run.
4. 4.5 miles, painful glute, physio gave me exercises and a foam roller.
5. 49 miles, two workouts (2x 3k an a 10k tempo), 11 mile long run with 3:13 last kilometre.
6. 51 miles, two workouts (9k progression + 10k tempo), 11 mile long run.
The first 10k tempo was 43 mins, the next was 40. Those are the main ones. The 11 miler was a race that I jumped in as my long run, but I got carried away and pushed hard the last 3k, most of it slightly downhill.
The race is a 5k on Wednesday, and its on road. Should I race this week or do a session on the Tuesday, and save myself for the next week when I have two races.
Any responses would be appreciated! (sorry its so long!)
