I enjoyed running and wish I had stayed with it when I got out but it killed my knees. Not sure how much of a difference there between five miles and 10K but 3 to 5 really want that different. Just takes longer.

I bring along gels and chews for those runs, along with a handheld bottle filled with an endurance drink like Tailwind or Liquid IV. Otherwise, I'd "bonk" by 7-8 miles due to loss of electrolytes and carbs.

10K is 6.21 miles, so only 2K more, more or less. 21.1K is roughly a half marathon in metric terms.

A man of your maturity may want to consider swimming or biking..... Anonymous2000 - 30/04/2017 07:34:02 PM 635 Views
