do about a 6-6:30 mile.
At age 38, I started going long and ran a 3:58 marathon.
At the end of that training, I could carry 5 miles about 7:30-7:45.
I was going to try to go sub 20 in a 5k a month later but got sick.
Quit running for quite a while and lost it all.
A 6:30 mile is legit running, not just a jog. I can’t fathom sub 5. My old man says his HS school record in the 60’s was 4:20.
