YES! This is what my running coach responded with via e-mail to my goal:
GOAL 9-17-06
Karen, great idea, not only do I believe this goal is tangable but I
believe we can set some kind of performance goal as well! I have been very
pleased with your progress, diligence and efforts! What I need from you is the times of your past 5K runs. When you come in tomorrow I will have a realistic running program for you as your home assignment.
Then when I responded telling him that a 5K at a 10 minute mile would be fine for me, he replied back with:
30 MINUTES IS NOT ACCEPTABLE, WE WILL GET YOU BELOW 30 MINUTES AND BEYOND. THAT IS MY PROMISE! SEE YOU TOMORROW.
