    Hello, I ran my 1st 5K last thursday in 55 mins. I set my speed between 5.5 - 6.0 on the treadmill, so not going very fast. I dont know what your speed is but sounds like you are going fast. I am just concentrating on completing the run at present not focusing on speed, hopefully will gradually build speed. Hope this helps.

    This was me when I was training. The treadmill was set to 6.0K/hr for the running sections and I slowed down if required rather than stop running.

    Yes, slow your pace, OP. Even if you think you're going "slow", you need to slow down. Since you already think you're perhaps going too fast, you most certainly are.
    C25K will get you to your goal. Hang in there.
