Acceptable is a relative term – It’s what you are aiming for and happy with that matters, not anybody else! If you’re racing at all, you’re racing against yourself, and not the others all around you.

Take a look at some of the great Running websites such as fetcheveryone.com – Which has a distance time predictor, so you can enter your last distance runs and see what it predicts – It uses standard rules to translate times up, and I’ve found it’s very accurate.

Also runnersworld.co.uk has some great resources to help you plan your training.
