At one point in time I have done this (about 6 years ago). I ran a few 5Ks under 19:00. My best time was about 18:36. I attribute my ability to do that because of my long runs. I was doing 10-13 mile long runs at a fairly fast pace. With runs like that under my belt that season, I felt like I had the staminia for both 5k and 10k races.
