Thanks both.

J2R should be faster off a 4:27 1500m, but I haven't done the faster work necessary, especially this year due to injury issues earlier in the year. Probably need to next year as it is going to limit how much faster I can get at 1500m

Did a relay as well. Nothing special there.

Neither can I! I ran 2:16 in 2016, a season where my fastest 15 was 4:50 as I hadn't done much aerobically.

Cracking run SPR. Still think that Road 10k PB is a little soft :) When you going to correct it!

Haha Daz, that's from my first official race in Sep 2008! In fact all my road PBs are from 2008 & 2009.

HM is the weakest one and the one that tempts me every so often, but not sure how much even decent attempt would take out of me so I've avoided it. The others I've either gone quite a bit faster on track or XC so don't care much about them TBH.

Recovery is individual, it doesn't take me two days to recover from any racing.

Recovery depends on the effort put in and distance raced. The harder you try and the further you go, the longer it takes
