cheers mate. i ran my first ever 5 miles without stopping today.

feel like a god

whats your time?

btw fit I ran 5km in 25mins last week I started training 2 weeks ago. Is this time good? I wanna improve

>>36505374
Around 35 minutes.

>>36505374
Lol yes now only just started two weeks ago and you ran three consecutive sub six minute miles.
Sure.

>>36505389
25/3.1
>sub six minutes
Mathlets will never learn

>>36505384
I don't think you can claim you "ran" a 5k.

Jesus, I miss running sometimes. I used to do ~1830 5km's but nowadays I'm all about gains.

Good job young nigga

>>36505403
Whatever fuckboy.

>>36505395
Oh sorry, just over six, I'm Canadian so I'm not used to miles. Still retarded to pretend you went from couch to that.

>>36505336
Grats breh, keep it up

On topic:
I run 5km in about 23min, but I'm trying to do it in less than 20min for the last months and I can't, so I'm clearly doing it wrong!
How can I improve?
Also, after I reach a sub-20min 5km, I'm gonna switch for 100 or 400m sprints

>>36505403
I don't think many people can claim they can "run" a 5K

we all jog it if you want to get specific

>>36505336
Squatting 242 for a set of 20 gives the same feeling, only you don't have to run as long to get it.

Also, if you keep that up, you'll need to run 15-16k, it'll take 50-60 minutes and the feeling will still be the same.
Running is a huge waste of time once you get good at it.

Is this bait? He's chugging at over eight minutes a mile. 25 minutes is completely believable.

>>36505423
25/3.1 is just over 8...

And it's easy to run 3 8 minute miles in a row if you're in decent shape at all.

>>36505389
Seriously. I was at a Military college; My CO was the honor graduate when he did Marine Corps OCS the previous summer. He had a 19 min 3-mile. That wasn't even subtle bait.

>>36505443
Yeah i wasn't really trying to be fast, it was the first time i ran in like 2 months.

>>36505445
It's also a huge waste of gains, which is sad

>>36505457
>Marine Corps OCS
went there last summer. that shit sucks

>>36505407
Cardio doesn't kill gains. Go out and run

Just did my first day today out of all the 5K program. 3.34km in 30 mins. I still feel pretty good for managing it in the first place but I'm curious as to how I'm doing? Is it a bad first day?
