[quote=Anonymous]I'm not that fast, but can run sub-8 minute miles for a 10K, and just above 8 minute pace for a half marathon, which I consider decent for a non-bird-like female. I actually just got that fast in the past few years, after running for 20+ years beforehand. I have no idea what changed, it's like I suddenly found a different gear. I ran in high school, so it's not like I'm a stranger to speed work. It's like something just clicked and I realized I could run much faster than I ever had. Never thought I'd be running faster in my mid-30s than in high school! You can almost certainly get faster, but it takes hard work. Intervals are a very different kind of training than endurance. And, some people are just natural sprinters (I am, more than distance), whereas others, no matter how hard they train, just can't get that fast. [/quote]
