My 10 min mile!

Some reason I thought W7D3 was too easy. So today I started week 8 with the goal of running faster. Thinking a 10 min mile by the end of the week would be awesome. So I start running today tracking the time to make sure I was faster than last time. At the 20 min mark I was at 2 miles and figured there was no way I'd keep that pace but I did!!! I ran 3 miles in 30 minutes!! I just have to get that .1 :-)

Ahhhh congratulations! (: I'm only on W5 (supposed to do the dreaded D3 today.. yikes!), but I've been concerned/wondering just how far I'll actually run when I attempt the full 5K at the end of the program. I really want something that can track my time and distance (I don't have a smartphone... lol) so I can see my progress a little more clearly when I get there.
10 min mile is a great pace - way to go!0 -

W5D3 is a mental challenge! Do it, you'll be fine! Too many people post about dreading it, I was excited for it. I've been running the full 30 mins since W7D2 so I decided to focus on speed. I think that's the way to do it. Get the time and then worry about pace!
Pedometer and a watch for distance/time?0 -
wow that's great. I'm on week 5 and get about 1 3/4 around in 5 minutes. I would love to be just a bit faster!0
