Hi Feegle we always say don't do comparisons because we all start off from a different place, be it fitness, weight, lung capacity etc... so if you take it as recorded you are not far off doing 5kms in 30 minutes. Cos you have just done about 4.5 kms in 30. That's good I would say! Pre graduation very good

Point taken, I'll go sit in the corner now

Wasn't a telling off... just sayin' it's hard to tell but you did great, really truly great.

Not a problem, it's nice to use stats to know where you stand though, if I can now use these stats to improve even a little bit - I'll be happy

I think that truly great is an exaggeration, I'll settle for "It was a good run"

Well done, use the stats as your benchmark for next run. Like your comments about music so I’m off to download some good music for my next run to help me get over my “stickiness” on week 7 😬

Thanks, yep, the music certainly does help at the moment, it'll be strange to run without it and Sarah Millican.

Wooo hoo! Well done! I've just done W7 R1, so my second 25 minutes and that wasn't too bad either. I'm running at about the same pace as you although other people on here have said to not focus on your speed as it's more about your strength and stamina at this point. Once I've graduated I'll be working on getting 5K in under 30 minutes and then it's time to work towards 10k....we shall see! Here's to 28 minutes then...and then 30...eeeeek!

FeegleGraduate in reply to hilsry6 years ago

Again, thanks

The stats were only there to provide me with some sort of benchmark, which they now have done, but.....it did feel good to pick up the pace and stride out.

Hope your 25 minute and upward runs go well!

Speed is irrelevant... the run is the thing.. well done you. Slow and steady as you go onwards

Hi. I've just done the same run tonight and I think it can be a little overwhelming with stats from running apps. I'm thinking it's good to know how far etc but I've set myself a more open goal. Get to 5k and do a park run 😁

It's all good because you're doing it! 😄
