1500m race predictor

Start out in 75sec per 400 and see how far you get with that. Remember the third lap is the hardest. If you can get to 1200m in 3:45 then hammer the last 300m and you”ll have a new PB.

I feel I am in a lot better shape this season and can run quicker, ran a workout of 5 x 400 in 58 62 72 70 66 with 2 minutes rest. Any particularly good way to pace the 1500 and any time predictions? Thanks

Definitely don't pace it like you paced that workout- The big thing is to feel in control going through the 800m mark, I remember blowing up many times by going too hard in the 1st 400. If you go out in 58, you will dumpster your chances at a good time, based on how your workout went. Make sure that you go out conservatively, and have enough energy to finish strong on the last lap.

I agree I did go out too hard at the start of the workout, it was meant to be at 800 pace but I haven't run one this season, there is no way I would run like that in an actual race

Also do you think I could get under 4:30?
