Somewhere around 6:14 pace for the 5.97km race tonight, despite pacing it poorly (exaggerated by a headwind towards the end) which bodes well for a sub 40 in a few weeks time.

Yes that’s quite a solid margin I’d say larkim. Daz, I’m in Boulder Colorado (actually right now gone to Utah for a few days but it’s much the same altitude and will be back in Boulder for the race). |

Thanks all. To be fair, sub 40 should be nailed on after the marathon block, so I suppose it's more about whether sub 39 is reasonable. Went through 5k last night in about 19:15-19:20 and would expect to do something similar in the 10k knowing that the second half climbs back up onto the bridge. Will endeavour not to sandbag as this race isnt the culmination of a dedicated training block which gets wasted if I balls up the race or take too many risks. |
