Today I used 5k sports training option on the treadmill again, still at level 1.
This time I did a warm up on the treadmill before I started the course. I think that made a big difference. The 5k took me 28:15. I averaged 6.61 mph; 9:04 minute mile.
I also paced myself better. My fastest speed was only 7.5 mph (maintained for two minutes).
I'm pretty happy with this time, but I know running in the park will be much more challenging, so I'm still looking to improve my time.
