 Posted: 06/18/05 - 23:17 Post subject: Predictions
I was just wondering what people thought i could run 3 miles in giving these times.
I had a training run at 7 1/2 miles straight. The first 4 1/2 miles I ran at a 7:35 to 7:20 pace - each mile I sped up. This was a pace that felt in-between easy and moderate. For refernce, my best known 1 mile time is 5:13. The ran the final 3 miles as a sort of race. I was not running quite at race pace, but it was a hard effort. I did the first 2 in 6:32, and then the final one was in 6:07. All together, after 4 1/2 miles already running at a moderate pace the final 3 were 19:11. My best time last XC season was 18:30, and that was at my peak at the very end of the season. I ran this after a 4 week layoff from any running and it was only my 5th practice back.
So...given all that, if I ran in a race (assuming the course is fairly flat), how fast do you think I could run 3 miles at this moment in time?
