  • It took a long while to run sub 20 minutes for 5km, but once that barrier was broken, the sub 19.30 followed, which meant this 5K attempt at Battersea Park in London would be a great opportunity to try and run a sub 19 minute 5K for the first time in some years.
    Thank you to Charlie McCarthy for pacing me during this, he's a gifted runner who will go far.

    Well done. Just started running really in January and been able to do a 5km in 19:51. Doing some slow runs and some threshold and speed work now to try and get that under 19:30, and would love to get it under 19 this year. It is really bizarre for me as going sub 20 is really hard but 25 to 30 seconds slower is fairly comfortable. Which I've assumed means speedwork is my primary place I need to focus a bit more on to increase my speed.

    • @thisisjogon
      @thisisjogon  3 роки тому

      I would say so Arrow Knee, keep doing that speedwork and if you can throw in a slow long run (8-10 miles) once a week you'll be surprised how much that helps too.
      Best of luck with training and well done on the SUB 20 - a great time.

      That will be the tactic next time Mark, though we are wondering about GPS - I know pacing well now and that first kilometre felt much more like a 3.48 but who knows.
