I have an standalone 5k this Saturday and I'm trying to figure out how to pace it. I know I'm capable of sub 20 minutes, but I don't know what I should aim for. Tips?
I do a 400-800-1200-1200-800-400 track ladder at a 5:45 pace w/ 400m jog recoveries. A tough workout for me, but it's just below my "race gear". I also ran a 1 mi wu, 6mi @ 6:45, 1mi cool down 2 weeks ago, wasn't completely thrashed, either. Obviously, it's kind of a ridiculous request due to so many factors in addition to previous workouts, but am I capable of a sub-19:30 5k this Saturday?
