    Hey, I'm a college sophomore and this summer I'm doing my base (been at 70mpw for two weeks now and sticking right around there for the rest of the summer) and I had a PR in the 8k of 27:11 last season. I ran an 8k this summer already (27:36) and I'm curious as to what people think I might be able to run this season. My main workouts this summer have been relatively easy 1200 repeats once a week (right around 3:53), 8mi tempos (right around 50min each) and 12-13 milers (12 was right around 1:22).

    thanks!

    There's really no way to tell now and any number of things can happen between now and the end of the season. But I'd think you'll be hoping to go around 26:15-26:30 and you're on the right track to do that.

    thanks...I did forget to say that my biggest goal is breaking 26:45, so that sounds reassuring!
