Managed to beat my 3 mile (4.82K) time today by 30 seconds in a time of 27:08, best of all micoach (free iphone app check it out) tells me I lost 641 calories. What is everyone else's best time for 3 miles?

    Can't run the 5K, but last walked it in 53.48. Might sound like much, but it was better than the 54.38 I did a few weeks ago and better than I ever thought I could do.

    Next 5K is August 14th. Maybe 53.00 or less??

    Just crossing the finish line is an accomplishment.

    Congratulations to you :)

    My best time for a 5k is 36 minutes. I have brought it down by 10 minutes in the past month.


    Congratulations on beating your time!

    That's a GREAT time, by the way!!! ANY time is a respectable one, since it beats the time of those people who have chosen to stay at home on the couch! :)

    Thanks for saying this. I know I am not the original poster and my times TOTALLY SUCK compared to everyone, but I was so proud when I finished my first 5K...until I got the nasty messages about how bad my time was.

    CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN TO YOU!!!!!!

    I've been pushing hard to beat my best 3 mile time recently.

    Current best is 21:45 which I'm very pleased with :-)

    Best time for me (one and only 5k race so far!) was 28:46 which I'm delighted with. Am aiming to beat it next month, even if only by a second or two!!

    Some fantastic times here - we should all be v. proud! :smile:

    And you!!! Doesn't matter if you walked. ran, galloped or cycled the 5k, you're still doing more than the person who's sitting on their couch glued to the TV. :flowerforyou: As for those people who sent you nasty messages, they should be bl**dy well ashamed of themselves - that doesn't help anyone and they should get a grip!

    Edit: just noticed, your CW is just under my goal - I'll get there one day!!!! :smile:

    That's awesome! My best 5K (on a treadmill) time is 33:45ish. I really want to get down to at least 30 flat, but I'm just working on being consistent in actually running the full 3.1 miles every time I hit the gym!

    Way to go!

    My best 5K was 19:49 a couple years ago. I may try to beat it one of these days - it will be painful.
