    Road work

    How far do you guys run and for how long?

    I`m finally getting myself discined enough to start running regularly. Yesterday I went for 6 km in about 35 minutes.

    It depends on the day. I can do 2 miles in just under 20 min's, but my usual pace is 20-22 minutes. I am running to get into shape at this point, not to fight. You have to pick up the pace and get under a 10-minute mile if you're fight training.

    Sorry, I don't know the Mile->Kilometer equations...

    During my offseason I cut back running 3X per week instead of (5-6). Before I run, I stretch and do 10 min of steady rope work. The kind of running that I do now is 3:00 @ 70% of my max speed and 1:00 coasting. Total distance covered is 2 miles taking a total time of 15:47. I get about 4 "rounds" and i'm pooped.

    My goal in the next two weeks is to add another half mile to the total distance in under 4 min for that additional half mile.

    I think the conversion is 1mile = 1.6km.

    In that case I'm running 3.2km to 4.8km 3x per week.

    One mile = .6km
    therefore a 5K run is 3 miles

    A mile is longer than a km. I seem to remember 1.6 km = 1 mile. It looks like I`m doing just under a 10 minute mile.
