10K Training Program Question

[TheEd]

a 10km in 42 minutes with not much training would certainly be termed as overuse .. running a 50 minute 10km would be considered as a normal run

due to your 'competitive' nature you tend to put a lot more effort in for everything with not much development aspects taking place thus leading more and more down the overuse road

you have to consider the training as building blocks towards a stronger race effort

hope this helps
