The ability to share my knowledge and assist as well as it benefits the site as well

hope that answers the question sufficiently

Hi B .. I did answer this earlier in the thread, you must have missed this

http://www.time-to-run.com/forums/showpo...stcount=11

and it is public knowledge on the site

I actually function far better in a 'One on One' environment

however these forums are a valuable tool for coaching

Hope that is better

Cheers

Hi TheEd,
20:27

First km I did in 3:43 and then was stragling to keep up.. I guess learned one more lesson - slower at the start!

It was tough - lungs were burning..

Thank you for link about yourself. Now I know little bit more about coach..

you know B .. that is a very very good result to start with

this shows a tremendous amount of scope

if you do not get too carried away and by 'putting the cart in front of the horse' you should be able to have continual improvement with 'careful' planning and training

well done

you should be happy

Cheers

Thank you TheEd..

I am pleased with it, but... there was 48years old women who did in 18:44 !!!and im 24.... i also realised that is bloody hard to keep that speed for 5km! as 1000m sprints didn't feel that hard..:duh:
From 192 runners i was 68
From 46 women i was 5th

Would be nice to get to top 3 women and maybe top 10-15 from all... first man did in 14:47!!! of my goodness!!! i promise to follow all your advises!

what am i doing next?

Cheers and enjoy the rest of the weekend

TheEd
