    I might have been able to get to 5:50 with more dedicated training, but that probably would have taken me a year or more of hard running on top of what it took to get to 6:07.

    Stumbled upon your channel by accident and you are inspiring me to run again. Throughout my childhood to early teenage life, I loved running. Then got into my junior year of high school where my family transferred to another location and I lost interest in running. Only because the track team in that high school wasn't a track team at all; but more like a party after school type deal or just a way to not go home. My fastest mile ever was 5 minutes 14 seconds as a sophomore in high school. But I enjoyed long distant running more. Ran with my school in a cross country run for 2 years. I am now 40 years old and have a belly. Lol. I need to get back

    Two brilliant runs there and absolute domination by Ali.
    A 4 x 400 relay coming up with family members/workmates making up the teams?
