@mtol117 Wow, really? This is wild. I usually run in a pretty popular park, and I feel like I never see anyone running slower than me except for the active grannies (who are my faves, tbh). I always take it easy, and my normal comfortable pace is probably around 7:30/km. I’ve never done a speed run, but I think I was pushing a bit too hard at the start of C25K, before I learned that running shouldn’t feel like actual torture. I’m going to try for a full 5k this weekend! Thanks for the encouragement.
Edit - ahh I just saw the edit, this makes a lot more sense. After I felt inspired from reading these comments yesterday I managed to run 4.2km in 30 min, which is the best I’ve done so far! I felt like I could keep running at the end, so I’ll try for a full 5k tomorrow and won’t worry about the pace.
