6000m Against Your 2k & 5k Times.

[old] Sir Pirate · Post by **[old] Sir Pirate** » January 7th, 2005, 8:01 am

Not enough people seem to do the distance of 6000m in my opinion. If you have done a 6K what time have you clocked and what is it in relation to your 5K and 2K. Mine is- 2000m – 6:24.0 – 1:36.0 5000m – 17:03.7 – 1:42.3 = 2K+6.3 6000m – 20:44.2 – 1:43.7 = 2K+7.7 The difference between 5K + 6K for me 1.4/500m. I think it should be lower than this, maybe 1:00. What does everybody else think? Sir Pirate

The difference between the 2k and 6k split for me is similar to yours. 2k = 7:09.8 - 1:47.4 6k = 22:54.3 - 1:54.5 = 2k + 7.1 I haven't done a 5k for about 3yrs so don't have a comparison there. Cynthia

I agree about 1sec difference Phil. My best for 5k and 6k are 1:39.4 and 1:40.3, so 0.9 (against a 2k best of 1:32.9). So 5k is 2k + 6.5 and 6k is 2k + 7.4

Mine is; 2k...1.40.9 5k...1.47.6 6k...1.49.5 you are right we don't do 6k's often enough. but why a 5k? Why not a 2k, 4k, 6k, etc? surely 5k's are wrong and should never be rowed

2km 6.57.4... cant remember the split in 500m maybe 1.46?? 6km 22.40... split 1.53.3 Never do the 5km. my coach ask us for make the 6km in no more than 10sec. over the split in the 2km. I you cant make it in a lower split, will be better! Cheers!

2k : 6:24:0 : 1:36:00 6k: 20:38:2 : 1:43:2 so its 2k + 7.2 for my 6k this looks like a sweet forum to me...

2k- 6:59.3; 1:44.8 avg 6k-22:04.6; 1:50.4 avg My coach said that you normally add 6-10 splits to your 2k and your 6k should be around there... 6 for the smaller guys, 10 for the bigger ones...

I've done one 6k, which was a week after my 5k PB. The 6k was .4 slower than the 5k. I should have done the 10k instead and got my 10k PB, so feel it was a mistake to do the 6k. Also there is no reason for having the 6k as it is almost the same as a 5k. 2k: 1:51.0 5k: 1:53.7 = 2k + 2.7 6k: 1:54.1 = 2k + 3.1
