Ran my 5K in just over 21 minutes (Earl)

Date: September 26th, 2016 5:37 PM Author: chocolate ticket booth deer antler 21:09
This was a minute slower than my best time 4 years ago, but 3 minutes better than my embarrassingly lazy time last year.
Did not train much, ran on my treadmill over the past week and a half a little.
I did once again win the 200+ and over weight class. 12th place overall and third in the 30-39 age range.
I think my hopes of running a 5K under 20 minutes and bench pressing 315 ever again are gone. Maybe I can bench 300+ again if I work at it. |

Date: September 26th, 2016 5:41 PM Author: Fiercely-loyal talking gunner partner If you haven't tried it yet, train with the map my run app and set the pace reminders at 400 yards. It will basically ding you constantly and you'll know when you fall off pace even over a pretty short distance. Helped me get my time way down.
21 is a good time though. I bet that puts you in the top 5% of runners. |

Date: September 26th, 2016 5:45 PM Author: chocolate ticket booth deer antler I was 12th out of 400 or something. But a lot of these "runners" are old lawyers and staff. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3364535&forum_id=2#31496483) |

Why am I so fat and slow? I feel like I'm mentally weak- I always convince myself to stop and walk |
|
Date: September 26th, 2016 7:40 PM Author: chocolate ticket booth deer antler walking when tired is a sign of mental weakness :( sorry bro.
It's just a 5K - even if you are beat to shit after running 15 minutes, hey you are almost done. Just see it through.
The aversion to discomfort is the biggest problem with lazy people nowadays. No shit exercising is not pleasant and difficult. |

|
Date: September 26th, 2016 7:46 PM Author: chocolate ticket booth deer antler set goals for yourself and make sure you push yourself each time you exercise. realize that the pain makes you better and you will feel good about overcomming the pain, rather than focusing on it and how easy it would be to stop.
When there is never a question that you would consider stopping, then you are dealing with the pain rather than letting it control you. |

|
Date: September 26th, 2016 8:00 PM Author: chocolate ticket booth deer antler Run it in 20 minutes and tell me you think its jogging.
Running a mile isn't very far either, but if you run it under 6 minutes that requires you to challenge yourself and build up to it. |
|
Date: September 27th, 2016 5:35 PM Author: boyish stag film I won my k-12 private schools charity run by doing 10 miles.
I was in first grade. I moved on from jogging after that.
edit: not true. I also won my grades mile run in third grade with a time of 6:42. I still think I'll ignore adult "men" talking about their 5:55 mile times. thank. |

Date: September 26th, 2016 10:45 PM Author: nudist stage "walking when tired is a sign of mental weakness" could be a sign he was running beyond his lactic threshold, but doubtful at 33 minutes |
|
Date: September 26th, 2016 10:47 PM Author: Insecure green pozpig Damn, 33 minutes?
Start low. Run 2 miles nonstop every other day for a few weeks, focus on maintaining a certain pace.
Up the pace and miles as the weeks go on |

Date: September 26th, 2016 8:16 PM Author: Charismatic Philosopher-king Kitchen Maybe. I would need at least a couple of practice races at 3.

|
Date: September 26th, 2016 8:05 PM Author: chocolate ticket booth deer antler 7:16 mile? I think it would be close and depend on how much you push yourself to run that pace. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3364535&forum_id=2#31497239) |
|
Date: September 26th, 2016 8:07 PM Author: Charismatic Philosopher-king Kitchen Fair. I haven't run only 3 miles in quite a while.

Date: September 26th, 2016 8:35 PM Author: chocolate ticket booth deer antler ha, well if I knew I was racing an xo pumo that might change my training (i.e. I might train).
Was your 5 mile run pretty flat? We had a moderately annoying hill and the entire race was there and back, so we had three 180 degree turn around which probably knock 3-5 seconds off your time each. |
|
Date: September 26th, 2016 8:44 PM Author: Charismatic Philosopher-king Kitchen Mild decline all the way there 180 turn and mild incline all the way back. I also run in an area with stoplights and traffic and shit which costs me a little time though it's hard to say how much. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3364535&forum_id=2#31497616) |
