Will I break 17 min 5k if I keep training like this?

Yes. You will.

Training looks good. I would mix things up just to keep it interesting and your body off balance but whatever you feel comfortable with.

Ok that's great, thanks!

PB: 17:09 (Last month)

Been doing this schedule in periodisation since October 2015, 8 - 12 weeks, 5k race, 2 weeks easy runs, Repeat. Gone from 18:11 - 17:09, if I keep doing it, how long till I crack 17? Any advice on what I could change or add in would be appreciated also.

If you can run 8 mile tempos at 6 flat pace you should easily be breaking 17. So, either you can go out right now and run low 16 for a 5k or you are racing your workouts.

you're definitely in shape to go sub-30 minutes for the 5K. beyond that it's a little hard to guess without knowing more about your training.

He is a 17 year old male, of course, he is racing his workouts.

Stop timing your workouts. See

You're twice his age and can't use the English language half as well.

Yes, that's good training

add in some occasional hills

Your 800/1000 intervals are too slow.

Your training program looks alright but totally unfocused. You have base mileage going on but youve added speed workouts. Your periodizaition is wack.

It should be more like 12 weeks of this current schedule sans intervals followed by 12 weeks or so of lower mileage but faster runs all around.
