Congrats to all recent 5k PBs!
Did one myself today

5k - 17:53.1 - -5,5''

After my 10k PB last week I was pretty sure to get another PB today, but as I have hardly done any interval training at 5k pace lately I started conservatively to see how I feel - it was not an as good day as the 10k PB day, but pretty good, had a good bit left in the tank at 1k to go and nicely paced up. No thoughts about HD during the whole effort so I'm sure I can be a good bit faster, maybe close to 17:45 on a very good day.

Congrats Martin! Nice pacing but too much left at the end!!... you almost beat my 500m PB in your last 500m

No surprise that you managed this Martin, and I'm very happy for you. Imo, if you don't have a wobble at the 3.5-4k range you aren't going fast enough, so you're good for 17:45 next time, and it doesn't need to be a very good day; you just need to believe what we can all see

The confidence boost for your 30 mins TT will be massive, so get that one done next. A 60 mins TT doesn't have as many transferable benefits, and you don't want to lose the momentum.

Thanks Stu, and great you pushed me a bit to the 5k yesterday, if not I would propably have choosen the easier 30' TT, now I'm super happy with this confidence boost. You're right, going for 30' next makes more sense, gives me some extra confidence and then, hopefully, I can go for 16k.

Will you do the CTC 5k?
Edit: just saw your post on the other thread, feeling not really sick and not really good is so annoying, I hope you're well soon! You'll get a very strong CTC result even when not 100% fit of course, but take care, an all out effort may end in getting really sick.

It's all too easy to feel like your 'work is done' and go for a softer target, but a bit more risk, for a bigger reward was always the best option, if not what you're inner chimp would have been telling you to do.

I'll just have to see what happens but I seem to really up and down on a daily basis, so it might work out alright.
