Just wondering if I am taking my normal runs at a to hard of a pace.
Monday- 6miles average 6:05
Tuesday- 7miles average 6:10
Today- Track workout:
1mile warm up
3x1600 on 2:00min rest, 5:11,5:04,5:01
2x800 on 2:00min rest, 2:24, 2:18
1mile cool down
Am I training at the right pace and what do you think my 3200, 1600, 800 time is right now
What? You want us to know if you're training too fast w/o telling us what your pr's are?
800- 1:53
1600- 4:23
3200- 10:08
10:08?Really?

Yup, ran it twice last season, not very good at longer distaces, 5kpr is only 16:52
Looking at all of this you have good speed and crap endurance. That 5k time is very very poor compared to the mile. If you want to get better at those longer distance events you need much more miles at a slower pace. (6:50-7:30) otherwise just stick to being a mid d guy.
I d say it's pretty unusual that you can on run 16:50's and low 10's but your speed is very good and you run 6-7 miles at 6 flat pace on a typical basis. If that's your easy run I would almost say that's to fast. Perhaps your shorter distance PR's indicate 6 flat easy pace but your 3200 and 5k certainly don't
Hoka Festival of Miles is tonight- could the meet record go down?
