What kind of training are you doing?


Typically I put one foot in front of the other and repeat.

But seriously, I just do basic running 6 days a week. 4 of them are 5k runs, 2 of them are at least 10k. The 5k runs I just, well, run them. The 10k+ runs I do interval runs (either 10min run 2 min walk or 10 and 1).

No. Bolt is at the human limit. TC is not.

Are you trying to tell me that Dynalo doesn't train as hard as Bolt?


Blasphemy.

TC can't get sub-57:00, to shave a full 2:00+ minutes to get to sub-55:00 in a 10k is very unlikely.


I mean, my original 10k time was like 1:20... so I feel like I'm making some solid progress <_<

Progress has just slowed down a lot, as things tend to do when you get better at them.

Exactly and eventually, you reach a limit where you simply cannot go any faster no matter how hard you train.


Nonsense, yes, your own body has a certain limit but 10k in 55 minutes is doable for practically everybody who trains regularly. Progress is just slower because your body is getting used to your routine. You need to start mixing up and perhaps use some other methods like weight lifting to increase your leg muscles without losing lung capacity.

The average time for 10k is around 45 -
50 minutes. 45 being runners who run marathons regularly and 50 being "amateurs."
