Just had my first indoor meet. Mile: 5:03 800: 2:21 Well, FTIR you were right! A 5:03 mile is equal to a 17:09 5k on the Tinman chart. Since I didn’t run footlocker I will probably use the 5:03 mile for my training paces. Training has been going pretty good. I’m running more miles than I usually do ...

Thanks for the link. I’m feeling mentally and physically ready so I’m going back to normal training tomorrow after an easy day today (30 min @easy pace). Also, thanks for all of your help so far.

Since then, I took a 7 day break and in the last 2 weeks I’ve been doing only easy/moderate running with one long run per week. My questions are: How many weeks should I do only easy/moderate running, when shou...
