Forums >Racing>Goal of sub 19 minute 5k
Ok, you've certainly got my attention, especially considering the results you two have had. Question(s)...what's the advantage of doing this workout instead of a classic tempo run? Or a longer tempo run? And Ken, did you switch to 1000's at 10k pace after a certain number of weeks, as Jim suggested?
My highest mileage week ever last week at 42. Will try to hold around 40 through May. We'll see if the higher mileage brings me to the promised land. At least I have the fast and flat weekly Good Times 5k course on my side, plus a bunch of slightly faster guys like BadDawg to help pull me along.
Current Goals: Run and stuff

Good luck with your races coming up. Jim24315 gave some pointers over on the sub 40 10k thread on an approach to running 1600's that I am going to be trying sometime in the near future. ...
It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.
