10k training - how fast can i get in 5 months?

[sirchimp]

Have the 5k paced run in a couple days. What should i be looking at for that? The other quality session is the 10x400m session - what should i target for a lap speed? I am hopping on a 20hour flight the morning after the 400m session...not sure that matters, but i'll have some extra stationary rest following that session.

For the 5k pace run, I would guess i might aim for 19:00 flat...Dial in 3:48/km pace, and keep it consistent for the entire 5k.

For the 400m session, I did the last session at an average lap of 82.66....so I'm thinking i'll aim for 83-86....nothing super strenuous...trying to be consistent about it. Or is that too fast?

Reasonable?
