what do u guys think of my running record ?

Hi Guys,

What are your running records and your age please !

Re: what do u guys think of my running record ?

Not many desis can run 10km, my boy at 15 had his first 10k in a snow storm and he did in 57 mins I believe, our team coach is 35 and he did in 53 mins. Some 60 plus year old chicks beat our coach. Good on you for running. I will check the race record and tell you what the other times were later.

Re: what do u guys think of my running record ?

I guess has to do with my Jatt genes. My forefathers were very hard working ( farmers).For most people, lifestyle and training factors drive athletic performance. At the national and international levels of competition, the genetic variant seems to make a difference in athletic success, but its role for non-elite athletes isn’t completely understood.
I had my DNA tested with 23andme and this is my report:

Well done. It's a good time for 10k

Re: what do u guys think of my running record ?

Walked 2km in around 25 minutes. My 1st day of any kind of exercise. :sid:

Baqi sab show off karein :emmy:

Re: what do u guys think of my running record ?

You are a Legend! :biggthumb: super performance…

Re: what do u guys think of my running record ?

At Harris’s race this was impressive, a woman over 60 at 53 mins.

Top runner was 37 some minutes. It was a really small race with prolly 50 runners.

:jiia::aisha: well done LP!! Walking is great! Bit easier on the joints too.

I’ve never really ran more than a mile or two. I can usually run a mile in just under ten minutes. I prefer walking and other types of exercise. I wish I was better at running. This is a great city to run in with lots of interesting trails etc.

Re: what do u guys think of my running record ?

This woman over 60 must be top notch athlete who represented UK in the 1948 Olympics?..great performance though for a person of her age! I have recently started running..for recreational purposes. :slight_smile:

Re: what do u guys think of my running record ?

Nah!!just an ordinary lady in our neighborhood, it is a small suburban town 0f 50k people. I think there were only 50 runners who ran this charity race as it was in a blizzard. The top runner under 38 minutes was crazy. I think for guys over 60 the record is 32 minutes, this world is becoming an amazing place..lol

Re: what do u guys think of my running record ?

5 km in 25 minutes, easy.

Re: what do u guys think of my running record ?

I've done 10k in under an hour several times during preparation for my half-marathons and my maiden marathon.

My finishing time at the actual marathon was not that great though. It took me a bit over 5 hours to complete it.

I'm turning 40 next year.

Re: what do u guys think of my running record ?

Great achievement. Just a word of advice. Try to be a little bit more consistent in terms of speed. Your pace is all over the place.

I had to walk slower cuz I was walking with dad and he asked me to walk slow for now. My hurt ankle wouldn’t support my running :frowning:

Re: what do u guys think of my running record ?

What happened to your ankle dearest!? Your Dad was right to make you take it easy... hope it heals quickly!

Re: what do u guys think of my running record ?

OP, I really wouldnt worry about timing. You are running 10k (and i’m assuming regularly) and thats your achievement by its own. Keep it going :k:

Re: what do u guys think of my running record ?

Nothing serious. I’d hurt my left ankle and calf sometime back and everytime I even walk more than usual, it hurts like hell, let alone trying to skip or run on it.
Anyway, I plan on simple walking for now. That’s enough exercise for me :phati:
Thanks for asking :slight_smile:
