Male junior. 5K was on a flat, grass course in good conditions in early September. 1600 should be a fast race in good conditions (night, 75 degrees, ~7mph winds).
Previous PRs of 4:39 in track last year and 17:25 5K last cross country season on the same course.
Had a minor head cold that I ran through last week, mostly recovered besides some mucus/slight cough.
Race is on Wednesday, will report back with time.
Kind of hard to say without knowing your 800 and maybe 400 Prs. Don't be disappointed with anything under 4:30.
Based purely on the thread title, I was going to predict 4:39...no joke!
Seeing as how the 5k was run on grass, maybe I'll give you a few more seconds and guess 4:35. I think your big improvement came from XC to track last year, not from track last year to XC now. Hopefully for you, your speed is better than your endurance and you will surpass my expectations.

Why is your 800m not 2:08 or under?
I'll chalk it up to notvracing it very much if ever.
4:35 for 1600m I'll say.
Seems like that xc course in September was short by a little perhaps.
If you're asking me that it was a time from an indoor meet in January that year. I ran the 800 3 times in hs
