When you are running to improve yourself you don’t want to run anything faster than 8 or 9 minute miles. The time spent out there is far more important than the distance that you go.
I used to run quite a bit back in the day, I think my best 5K was somewhere around 17:50. I haven’t run in a while though. I’m a lazy fuck now lol Hell I just woke up 15 minutes ago
