>So what do you think ?

that sub 37 should not be a problem (once healthy) on that central park
course. 8 months ago i ran 6:09/mile in a 5 miler and felt very strong
at the finish. if you recall at the time i realized improvements by
running even...it's talk but i feel i could have sustained this pace
another 1.2miles...which would have been a sub 37:00 10K on that
course.
and this is all being overweight, not training, just showing up and
performing on talent. If I showed up for a race in shape and
actually trained? Now wine & women and all that the night before a
race?.... 36:xx for sure on a flat course, perhaps even in Central
park.
that's what i think and the answer to your question. however i have
no plans on racing going forward until I can run hard free of knee
pain. but if Charles finds the courage to stand up to his words, I
will race him on April 2 as he has challenged me to. in my current
state I doubt I could must anything better than a 41:30, however i
doubt Charles can break 42:00.
(on Charles' last 4 mile race i praised his spilts prematurely and out
of ignorance. i assumed he raced the usual 4 mile course starting on
the 72nd St. transverse. Hence his splits in Mile 3 relative to the
previous miles impressed me. That was a mistake. The race started at
the 102nd St. transverse I later learned and upon learning the correct
course route, his splits lost all shine. The rolling hills came early
in the race, not midway and or later as I thought at the time).
