Answer 6

Well, it depends on how much time you've already dropped off your time this season. But, if you do more pacing work at practice for the next few weeks, you should be able to break 6. Try running 6-8 400s at about 88 seconds each with about 90 seconds of rest in between to get the pace in your head. If you can hit that all 4 laps in one of your meets, it will put you at a 5:52. Also, running success is responsive to confidence, so if you think you can do something, it's easier to achieve, so don't tell yourself that you can't do it. Good luck.
