Today I did 6x1000 with 90 sec rest, splits were 3:14, 3:15, 3:14, 3:15, 3:15, 3:12. I did this in 35°F weather.
I'm running a 5000 trial this friday, if the forecast holds out it should be 55° and clear. What's an estimate? 16:15? Maybe 15:xx?
Workout and trial both on a track.
You just did all-out VO2max workout 2 days before competition ?
Three days not two.
You will break 20.

I think you nailed it. You should run sub 16:15 unless that was truly an all-out effort in the workout. On a very good day you could break 16:00.
Eh, first 4 reps felt pretty smooth, last two were pretty hard, but nowhere close to all out. Overall maybe an 85-90% effort workout.
Are you running solo or paced/rabbit?
Ima go wit 16:10.
If you’re having a great day, 15:5x is possible.
