I wanna run a sub 19 minute 5km currently I have a 19 57 pb without a lot structured training. Started increasing my distance and am doing about 35 to 40 km per week any advice on how my runs should be structured?
@Neil Sahni if it's on grass just as long as its not to slippery or muddy, then it should still be preferable to run it in carbon plated shoes. if it is too hard to do with carbon shoes on the ground then obviously go for cross country shoes. i still suggest to train with carbon plated shoes as you can properly simulate running at a faster speed so that when i comes to the race then running faster should feel fine
This was a 10k i did in a very muddy cold windy day, and the track was through a forest and swamp… yes seriously a swamp and yet i came 2nd plce overrall with a sub 40 time with yet CARBON PLATED shoes, so i suggest for every one to 9/10 times to always race in them, as that is what they are designed for… SPEED.
