Hey, i'm 220lbs and have been running since about July-August time, starting with the Couch - 5k app... I haven't beat my 5k record for a while as have been upping the distance and been doing 6ks and one 10k,

I went back to 5k today and smashed my record by just over a minute

PB = 25mins 28secs

:):):):)

Now - I want to race!

    wow, that is fantastic!!

    My best 5k time so far is only 32:04....so you are WAY faster than me!! I did my first 5k on 10/15/11 (Hartford ING Marathon)....I've been jogging on the treadmill since September...
