Not sure if anyone's asked this before, but.......
I was wondering, how fast do you walk & run?
I'm on w3 and walk at 5.5 and run and 6.5 or 7. I assume my treadmill works in KM/ hour? Am I running too slowly? Not sure if I'm doing it right.
I'd love to hear what everyone else does.
Thanks in advance

I walk at 3.5 mph and run at 4.5 mph so it's just about the same as you. I'm not as concerned with speed yet. I will work on that once I'm done with the program. I don't want to injure myself or cause exhaustion.0

I'm very slow. I walk at 3.4mph, and run at 3.8mph. I will work on speed as my endurance gets better.0

According to my pedometer my walking average is 3.7 mph and running average is 6 mph0

To paraphrase a famous ultramarathoner: Run slowly. Then, if you feel like you're slow, slow down some more. Right now you're just building a runners body: muscles, bones, joints, blood flow, lung capacity, etc. Once you have that in place, you will have the ability to speed up . A lot. Within a short period.0

I walk and run close to the same speed, usually 3.2 - 3.8 mph average. I did w7d2 today and a man walking briskly passed me. Kinda irritated me a bit but whatever because I can now jog for 25 min straight. I'll work on speed when I complete the program.0

That was totally me during C25k.
I can now run a mile in 10 minutes.
We're talking a single mile, and I can't do it every time. But we're also talking about on the track/in the neighborhood and not in a race. I think my next race is going to be a 10k.0 -
I am pretty slow. I only run about 12 minute mile. So I guess that puts me at about 5 MPH.0
