I feel like there's been some sort of misunderstanding...not quite sure how it happened but when I got to 3K in 17 minutes 45 seconds I sure wasn't going to take it easy. Literally hit 5K at 30 minutes (or 5.01K in 30.02 as Mapmyrun told me, then a mad panic to get to the arm band off and press pause).
I was too tired to cheer but I'm well chuffed now...can you tell 🏃♀️😍🎉
You should be so chuffed. Well done you 😊😊
Yay! That’s fabulous! A good run day is a great day! Well done! 👏👏👏
Thanks, it certainly is...shattered now, I'll sleep well tonight 😊
That's a great run for you today Run46, for the exact time you ran, look at the smaller 5K split time at 5k at the bottom right of the graph, that could well be 29.? that would be a sub 30 minute 5k for you. 😊 🏃 Whenever I run a 5k, I quote that split time, not the time in bold, that only stops when you press pause or stop, not at exactly 5k.
Al you are full of useful information! I never thought of looking at the split time. 👍
It could make the difference between a sub 30 minute 5k and a +30 minutes 5k run, seconds count.
Unfortunately for me using Mapmyrun, once I've saved the run and come out of the app I can't see the splits anymore...but I'll know for next time 👍
In Mapmyrun, when you open it at first you will see a graph which only tells you the "community, friends and me" also your name and when you ran.
In BOLD you will see distance, pace and duration, for more detail of your run, tap that page and that will open a more detailed page of your run which includes a map of your route, distance, duration, below that, average speed, calories, elev gain, average speed and most of all splits, if you don't see them, go to "settings" tap all the options, they then should appear.
Is this the free one your talking about Al, as when I go on it, the 1st page I see is a GPS map of where I am now which says start workout. If I press the top left icon a list comes up, then I press on routes and that shows saved routes/runs. When I click on one of those then I get a map with my previous time, ave.speed and elev.gain but not much else. I've looked around and can't see anything else. Not sure if yours is the paid for one, or I'm on a different version...or just missing something?! 🤔
Could be a different version Run46, I do have the free version, for example the paid version has heart rate, when I ran that recent 10k, the auto Alexa announced that my heartrate was zero, if I had the paid version, hopefully it would be a bit more than that, even my free version has splits.
I've found it Al...thanks for getting me looking! On my version I have to press the 3 lines icon on the top left of the screen, then dashboard and then workouts and it's all there 😊
Was actually 30 minutes and 1 second so not a sub 30 but great to know all that info is there!
Yahoo and many congratulations. That’s fantastic. You should try a parkrun soon. You’d get a sub 30 at one for sure.
Damien
Thanks Damien, it's a good day 😊
Not sure about that though...the Park Run close to me is really hilly, in a country park 😳
Well done. Target achieved. 🎯
Thanks Dexy...crazy thing is there was no target today, it was just supposed to be a 30 minute run prior to my long run at the weekend. It was a fluke I think and may never happen again 😆, god bless these cooler evenings 👍
Not a fluke....well deserved...I think it happens when we take the pressure off ourselves....
Thanks and yes, you're probably right...no expectations, just running for running sake. The longer runs, the short speedy ones and the strength training are clearly paying off 👍😊
👍🏻🥳🎉 too tired to type!!
😂...I was too, left it for an hour 👍
Congratulations! Definitely a milestone (or 5kstone!) 👍
That's so impressive! Well done 💪🏃♂️🏃♀️
Thanks, I'm not sure how it happened or if it ever will again 😆🏃♀️👍
Well done and congratulations
Thanks, I do love it when everything falls in to place and you just have one of those good runs 😀
Yes had one the other day
Wowee, so I've just seen...well done, fabulous run 🏃♂️👍
Thanks it’s a great feeling when everything comes together especially if you only ran because you felt guilty
😂...whatever gets you out the door 👍
Wow Run46, you’re on fire! 🔥 Well done. 👏👏👏
Thanks CCM, I assure you the fire has well and truly gone out this morning 😉
😅😅
Well done!!!
I would love to know the secret. I just seem to hover around 7.13 per km and cant really break out of it.
Thanks...I'm not sure there's a secret but nature/genetics may be playing a part. I'm 48, 5 foot 8 and a reasonable weight. I'd also been walking a minimum of 10,000 steps daily and occasional zumba for over a year before I started running so started at a reasonable fitness. Can only assume that along with longer runs, speedy short runs and strength training it's making the difference. I'm about the same as you on my longer runs 👍
Go girl go! Well done 🎉🎉🌠
Thanks, I think the planet's and weather aligned just right for me 😊
Also, you user name has got me singing now...may have that running around in my head all afternoon 😂
😂😂 it was supposed to be "don't stop me now", but got mistyped somehow! 🙈I think I prefer my version. It's a good song to run to! 💃🏃♀️
Fantastic, well done. That is one of my goals. No wonder you’re chuffed!! 👋👋
Thanks Rainbow, I was pretty hyped 😊
That said my 50 minute run this morning really wasn't pleasant, most of it felt like a struggle but I knew I could do it so carried on regardless. Was pretty pleased when it was over 👍
Each run is different but the good ones are worth the wait 😉🏃♀️
Well done for sticking at it. Some days are great and others are so hard!
Congratulations on your speedy run! 🏃♀️🤸♂️🏃♀️🤸♂️🏃♀️🤸♂️👏🏻👍🌟 💥⚡️🎉😊 How you managed it without planning it, is a mystery! Happy running to you! 🏃♀️😊
It really is, not managed it in much under 32 minutes since 🤔 but I'm happy with that too 👍🏃♀️
First sub 30 minute 5k!
A good day for a sub 30 minute 5k
A gentle 30 minute run (in the cold)
