[COLOR="Navy"]Thanks Johnathan
OK .. that is quite a step up from 50mins down to 42min however it is possible if you have the natural ability (and as mentioned elsewhere, we all do have a certain amount of natural ability)
To start with, do the sub50min program for the next 3 weeks, you can start Day1 today ..
this will allow you 3 weeks to do training and to adapt to the 3 week cycle the program works on.
After 3 weeks your race will be a 4k time-trial .. preferably on a 400m track and we can gather Heart Rate data from that trial
Then from that 4k trial we can discuss the next level and work on that
This will work, you must just give it a chance
Please do ask questions and share your thoughts
