[question]

Uhh 32 min? I don't try running super fast or else I'll tire out right away. I don't know if my time is bad....oh well...lol.

10 years ago.. under 21 minutes.
Today..

Yeah... right now about 30 minutes.. When I was a kid, maybe 22. NOT a kid any more lol

My PR for a 5k (3.1 miles) is 18 minutes and some change. That was when I was 35 years old. Just under 20 minutes now at 53.

Last year ran a 5k in about 24 minutes.
5k = about 3.1 miles

I jog it in 30 min

When I was 29, I could run 4 miles in heavy Army boots, and full military uniform with helmet, in 27 minutes. I told my US Army Company (I was the Company Commander, a Captain), if I couldn't beat 28 minutes (my MAX score for my age to get 100 points) during a physical fitness test we all had to take, I would buy all 200+ of them drinks on me at the NCO club.

I later heard that some of my soldiers thought I was a serious runner (which I wasn't, I was never athletic), and was cheating. So I thought OK, I'll handicap myself.

The morning of our Company run I sat outside on my Orderly Room steps after addressing my troops, took off the spit-shined Corcoron jump boots I usually wore, and put on a pair of brand new, never-before worn Quartermaster issue boots that my First Sergeant handed to me. My soldiers groaned at the sight, knowing how stiff and painful they were, without being broken-in.

And those were the new boots I ran in, on a blacktop road, and still did 27 minutes in 4 miles. Only 7 other of my soldiers out of over 200 came in ahead of me, all in their teens and early 20s. I didn't have to buy anybody any drinks. I really used to be that showy.

So what do you do when it all ends? And you can't do anything anymore? It sucks. You can tell people about what you USED to do, but who the Hell cares about that?

Ironman4U saidMy PR for a 5k (3.1 miles) is 18 minutes and some change. That was some time ago, probably just under 20 minutes now if I was racing it.

Your pace for your "current" time = my sprint pace lol

Back in November, did a 5k race and broke 20 minutes (19:52). That was my goal, so I was definitely happy.

A long time. I don't run well.

27 minutes.

thelast time i did one it was like 19 mins or 20 havent done it in a while

the clock is still running for me

20-21 minutes give or take..

Like 20 minutes now...used to run track and play soccer, but college has made me fat and slow. I don't really sweat times anymore...if you're out there trying you're a step ahead of everyone else who isn't. I actually picked on one of my friends recently for his swimming habits but I'm actually pretty proud that he's trying shit other than lifting

last year i resumed racing again but never managed under 19'20" . I kind of gave up after 5 races because i couldn't commit to serious training.
think my best ever is 18'20" about 6 or 7 years ago .
this year i just run for fun , doing some hiit but with no special goal.

plus i can' let running distract me from mtbiking.

21'40....but workin on it. got a 10k next weekend!

about 21 minutes give or take a couple of seconds

7 years ago, I ran a 5K in 20 minutes. Now that I am 50, I seem to be stuck in the 28-29 minute range. Oh well, I need to get my ass out there and start doing more running.

Well this is 5k so its 3.1 miles, but my best was 19:29. Now I will probably be lucky getting it around 26:00

Had to do 3 miles in 18 mins. during preseason in college. Probably nowhere near that fast now

25 min - absolutely hate running do it out of necessity

I could do it in about 18 and a half minutes right now. If you gave me three or four weeks of lead time, under 18.
