How much can i improve?

Question

I am currently a soph in hs and during XC this year, i was running high 18's for 5k. This was without much training during the summer(i never ran more than 3-4 miles a day) what could my times be next year if i ran every day during the summer and added some distance to my runs?

Thanks

Answer 1

Probably low 18s to mid 17s at least.

Answer 2

if you keep at it everyday you will be able to gradually run more and more...probably won't notice it for awhile

Answer 3

if you do as you wrote, easily you can reach 17.00 in a year.

to break 17 is a little hard, but i believe you can.

under 15 is very hard, its up to you, hang in there.
