hey fellas just ran my first 5k. really nice hills on the course too. got first in my age group and 42 out of 250 overall.

i ran a 23:17

what kind of times are you guys putting out here recently?

My last 5K was about a month ago. Time was 20:31 and placed 28th out of over 300 overall.

We also had a 10mi race a couple weeks ago. Time was 1:15:27. Got 10th in my age group and I think 17th out of about 250 overall.

awsome man...

keep the replies coming, it's a good way to compare and pace yourself

i did a 5k race recently in under 23min

5k 19:23

congrats man that's haulin' some a$$

I'll just go ahead and list all of my PRs for the distances I've ran:

5K: 17:32
10K: 35:53
15K: 57:14
10 Mile: 59:05
1/2 Marathon: 1:09:26
Marathon: 2:41:21
50K: 4:26:58
40 Mile: 5:18:26
50 Mile: 6:44:52
55 Mile: 7:12:39
100K: 13:26:42
100 Mile: 29:25:01

How was that 100miler?

are you F-d in the head?! Damn!! 100 miler? I can't even contemplate that. Anything above 6 miles at a 7 min pace for me is just torture.

Well, last time I ran before yesterday for a distance was probably about 6 months ago, but I ran 24:11.

My last 5k was at just under 23min

5k: 17:34
4mi: 20:16
10k: 34:10
1/2 marathon: 1:03:22
marathon: 3:03:27

Sprint triathlon: 1:05:23
Olympic triathlon: 2:33:46
1/2 Ironman 6:27:45

I would venture to say you are either an olympian, professional athlete, or insane, or lying. But good on you if those are your times... I think we all have something to work towards now

I had a feeling I was going to get some kind of comment after posting my times.

1) Those are all my PR times at those distances; not average times. Some I haven't been able to beat again. It has taken me years to post those times.

2) I didn't do them all at once, obviously. I spend about 6 months training specifically for just one of those distances. Except the half-Iron distance; that one took just over a year of specific, half-ironman training. I'm currently training for a full Ironman and hope to do it in under 13 hours. I've been training for over a year so far and plan on doing one toward the end of the summer.

Just wanted to throw that on the post to express that I am NOT an "olympian, professional athlete or lying" I'm just obsessed with trying to see just how far I can push the limits of my body.

The 50k, 50mi, 100mi runs, now those are insane...

I appreciate that, I hope to complete my first half ironman down in Branson this fall.. I hope I can keep up the training as hard as you have. And yeah, I don't think I'll be doing any 100 milers anytime soon.

1-mile: 5:45
1.5-mile: 9:12
2-mile: 12:50ish
5k: 19:50

Never plan on running 100 miles at once.

Haven't been running as much as I should lately, could be much faster.

just did my first half marathon.. clocked in at 01:53:01

Yesterday I ran a marathon in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia with a time of 3:46:36, this was my first one and with only 7 days notification to do this run I am pretty stoked.

6 mile time in Kandahar- 47:24(dust is crazy) but NO EXCUSES. That's my best time so far and second time running a 6 mile. I need more practice.

Just ran 6 miles on a treadmill in 45:22. Best so far.
