My last run was...how was yours?

Thanks for all the encouraging words running friends! Every time I don't feel like running I read your posts and it motivates me to get out and run. Had a great run today after work. 62 degrees and sunny today with no wind or humidity. You just can't get any better than that! We are suppose to get worse weather tomorrow or not looking forward to that! I did set a personal record today, not by much but I love that my time keeps improving even if it is just a few seconds. Ran 5.03 km in 30:33 averaging 9:47 a mile and the last mile was my best!

Keep running my friends!

First run of the new year for me and it was great! 72 degrees here in TX so perfect for a run. Ran 5K in 31.12. It felt great!

Ran a 5K on Saturday - time 31:56. Not as good as I wanted but still quite pleased with my results. Looking at running another 5K the week of Thanksgiving.

Question: Is it too soon to start training for a 10K? I started running for the first time EVER in my life in June completing the C25K program in mid-August. I've ran two 5K races so far. Or should I just work on my 5K pace for another couple of months to get more time under my belt?

My best run ever! Went before dinner and app wasn't working correctly. Was so mad I went home and stopped after about a mile. Then decided to try again after dinner and ran 3.1 miles in 30:34 averaging 9:51 a mile! I'm trying to get my time under 30 for my next 5K. I'm thrilled I'm under 10 minutes a mile.

Protometal: Thanks for the snake story. Scary and funny. I think seeing a snake might make me run faster!

Congrats redrunner on your PR!

Congrats Julia66 on your race with your family. Sounds like everyone had a great time.

And congrats Dreamstate on your half!

I'm still just working to improve my 5K time. Ran two miles this morning in 19:30. My longest distance averaging under 10 minutes a mile. Walked another mile.

Just ran 1.5 miles tonight. My phone wasn't working so I have no idea on my time and had no music to listen to, but turned out to be a great run. A lady was out walking my usual course around the park and stopped and asked me how far it was around the loop. I just smiled and gave her the answer. She thanked me twice and said I just looked like someone who would know. A great compliment for me since I just started running this summer. It made me think of myself as a runner and an athlete now. Something I would have NEVER considered myself to be before this year.

And a big thank you to all who post and encourage others on here. It really keeps me motivated.

Great run! Ran my fastest mile today @ 9:07. I think my first goal is going to be run a 5K in under 30 minutes.

Congrats to all on your races. Very encouraging to hear what others are accomplishing.

Just finished my best run ever. 5K - 33:42 averaging 10:50 a mile. My last mile was actually my fastest. And to think I was worried I couldn't run a 5K today since my longest run in two weeks has been 1.5 miles. I've been trying to get over a cold which makes it hard to breathe. My goal is to get under 30 minutes and then start training for a 10K.

Happy Running Everyone!
