When I knew I wanted to break 18 this summer I knew I would have to devote a few months to pure 5K training to get there. It felt strange never running "long" like I typically do and my mileage was a lot lower but that speed work is no joke! During marathon training an 18- something 5K is just fine by me! <br /><br />You have been putting in lots of miles and some really solid tempo running too. I am sure Baystate is going to be your race!Tiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17865099182609959790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-976919865429314945.post-79908341736500702662013-09-05T17:05:29.285-07:002013-09-05T17:05:29.285-07:00Oh, yeah, such a show off you are...doing long run...Oh, yeah, such a show off you are...doing long runs on the track, ha! Yes, you are getting faster and faster! Your training is going awesome and for the most part you are keeping the crazies on the down low (at least this is what I gather from spying on DM) which is good and won't overtire you! That 18:40 would have been a sub 18:30 without the pacing issues, which would translate in a sub 18 with proper 5K training. You'll take care of that after Baystate:) Hope everyone stays healthy for you:)Ana-Maria RunTriLivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06277465990759801560noreply@blogger.com
