Am I In 10K PB Shape?

You don't come off as arrogant; you come off as being realistic. Good stuff.

enjoy what we do is all we can ask for......best of luck with your summer racing

Great to see you so positive and enthusiastic!

Mate, you absolutely do NOT sound arrogant. You've put in the hours, you've done the miles, you've earned the confidence. You're not belittling others by saying you're hitting your splits.

Love this confidence Andy! You're training is very inspiring and it's great to see you getting into PB shape 👍

You got this, but remember dont over do it, recover, rest and eat well 🎉

Fantastic update - keep up the good work! Keeping my fingers crossed for your Pb attempt. You’ve put in so much hard work

The arrogance disclaimer is hilarious! It's fine to feel confident when you're training well and improving. I hope you smash it!

I’m thrilled for you Andy. What a wonderful series of training for yourself and videos for us. I can see the progress week on week and I’m pretty certain you are on course for a great 10k.

All sounding really good Andy. It's a great feeling when the training really starts to click 👍

The Couriers Jon Ward 5k is 5 laps around the new(ish) cycle track, its a brand new course so should be interesting to see how it works with lapping other runners (or in my case being lapped! 😂). I've done a few early morning speed sessions on it and it can get a bit windy in parts because of how open the surrounding area is but should still be pretty quick!

It is hard to find a 10K race near me in the northeast US unless it's November. Since I started racing in 2017, I've done 68 5Ks and only five 10Ks.

Yeah I had chickenpox last year in September and before that my heart rate was mid 40's and now it's low 50's 😮 training harder than ever but not going down. Getting pbs though but only been running 3 years.

You almost beat Ben is Running not so long ago 🔥😃 So I assuming you must being pretty fast as well 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Because Ben is fast like the wind 🌬️ 🙌 So great job mate 💪😍

Great training, how fast dyou have to be to enter podium 5k I’m only just under 20? Seems like quite an elite race.

Hopefully you'll chat to a few on the start line and tag on to a pack that's aiming 32:50👊and unleash that inner focus and belief 🦾🏃

I can follow your analysis, but what goes through my mind is: my coach always told me (and also all kind of calculators online) that your 5 and 10k times are connected with the equation: 5k x 2 + around 1:30min = potential 10k time. For me this has always been close to reality. Even your new 5k PB of 16:08 x 2 + 1:30 gives you still only 33:46 which is far of your 10k PB. With a 33:00 on a 10K you should easily go sub 16min on the 5K. I think your new training focus finally brings your 5k PB to were it can be. Hopefully that will also transfer to a new 10K (and marathon) PB.

London 10k is fairly flat but as you said there are a lot of u-turns, not the easiest to pb and you don't get much shade throughout

Are you in 10k PB shape? Yes, you've just run a 5k PB so it's going to happen. Be patient, stay consistent and trust the process and the PB will come! Good luck 👍👍👍

I’ve never ever thought you come across as arrogant. You have to believe in yourself and back yourself. Keep smashing it Andy.
