I also will run for a minimum of 20 minutes. Most of my runs are in the evening after work, so a lot depends on what time I leave there and what time the sun sets. I prefer to get at least 30 minutes in, and all of my runs are on trails rather than roads... except for the occasional 5k road race.
Hey, this is my first post on runningforums. Thanks to purple hayes for posting about this forum on bikeforums.com, my main 'haunt'. This looks like a great place to further my education about running. I've only recently gotten attached to the sport -- this past April. I hope you don't mind putting up with another newbie! :D
Glad to see you here October Blue! You're in good company in Ohio. We've got a number of other members from there.
The nearest cold beer! :cheers:
3 miles, but, hey, any time with running shoes on, and the wind in your face, is a good time.
3 miles is my minimum.
i really like 5.
i want to start increasing mileage to where i can go 10 once a week.

1/2 hour.....I don't usually race under the 5 mile distance....and the day before a race is usually the only day I don't do at least 7 miles..so if I lace up I'll run a verrrrrrrrrrry slow 3 1/2-4 miles Which is usually the day before a marathon or a race I'm nervous about. Tomorrow, I have a 5k and I really nervous (been over a year).....I didn't run at all! :o
4 miles is my shortest route........good luck in your 5K sue. Is that the Bay Beach run?
