I'm making this thread so as not to muck up the OOTB UNC Other Sports thread. I know @uncboy10 and @WhatTheHeel? (?) are runners. I don't run nearly as much as I used to. In high school, I ran track for two years and cross country for one. Don't mistake this to mean I was fast or anything.... those two sports didn't have tryouts or cuts
I've been inspired to:
1. Break my high school 5K PR of 20:55
2. Break 20:00 on a 5K
3. Any further improvements I can do from there.
I believe my mile PR is 5:45.
Random running question @uncboy10, do you find running in cold weather is exceedingly more difficult and more uncomfortable than running in warm/hot weather? For me, running in cold weather is terrible. I have much less stamina and I start to get that effect where you taste blood in the back of your throat (hopefully others know this phenomena and I'm not just dying) lol.
