TheEd,
Thanks for the reply with a great deal of salient inputs!
I know it will take at least 3 months for me to go sub 50, so I am not in a hurry. On the other hand, 10k races are not plenty, so I have to plan ahead.
I plan to run a 10k on Oct 17. With my 4k time, I can probably run 55 mins 10k right now, so my goal for the Oct 17 10k will be sub 53, do you think that's realistic?
The race will leave me with 2x3 weeks time to train including this week. I guess what you were saying was I should start out training easier than the standard sub 50 schedule these 1-2 cycles. And then maybe starting from the third cycle go all the way following the sub 50 plan?
The other question is when should I plan to do the 4k TT again? Maybe in three week?
Regards,
