Yeah the sub 20 5k is a stretch target, particularly because the achilles really doesn't like it when I up the pace. I have a bit of a mental block as well because I keep telling myself that I'm not exactly built for running (1.85m, 82kgs) so that doesn't help, but then again I've been absolutely trounced by heavier set guys so it's not like I'm trying to bend the laws of physics!
It'll be tough but if achilles permits I might just do it, might take me most of the year to get there though!
