    Great job and video! Some tips from a 15:49 runner:
    - increase your easy mileage. And when i say easy, i mean when you finish a run, you should not be tired at all. 80% of your volume should be easy pace
    - interval training, for example 8 x 400m with 2 minutes rest (slow jogging), the 400 faster than 5k pace. Once a week
    - long slow run once a week, but no more than 30% of weekly mileage. So if, like yourself, you run 35k a week, your long run would ideally be 11k.
    Hope this helps you out, those sub 20:00 times are not as far away as they may seem ;)

    I’m really impressed how you could run 5k on your first day. I’ve been pretty inactive for past 5 years. The only exercise I’d get was climbing 18 steps to my apartment. So when I started running few weeks ago I couldn’t even run 400m without gassing out and huffing puffing with my hand on my knees. Yesterday I ran 5.78Kms without a stop in 30 minutes. Now the target is 10k. After that I will work on my pace and get Sub 20 5k On or Before 31st Dec. I know that’s very optimistic but I’m like that. If I don’t set goals, I’ll get bored and quit. So wish me luck.

    My fastest time recorded is 26:10 but that was 5 years ago and now I have a much higher level of fitness. If I can make a recommendation it would be to not run the same distance each day. If you run for 4 days in a week run 1 day really slowly, but a longer distance (10k?), then a short day but fast (1k rest then 1k), then a relaxed short run (3k?) and then go all out on your 5k

      Last summer I was running in exactly those temperatures and I learned that even longs runs are possible if you take water and don't overdo it. Although everyone was looking at me like I was completely insane xD
      Currently the min/max temperatures are -3/+3°C here in Germany.
      TBH it's way more difficult to find the optimal clothing layers so that you don't start sweating or/and cooling down, especially when it's raining. In that regard it's easier to run in the sun :P

    Hey man! It almost sounds like you might have Chronic Exertional Syndrome (like me)! It’s exercise induced and causes tightness and pain in your calves and foot numbness. Depending on my running fitness my feet go numb around the same time during my run and then they come back and I’m usually able to finish my run without them going numb again. I currently have PFS (a type of runners knee) most likely stemming from a random half-marathon I did without much prep work. So I’m waiting to try a chiropractor and see if that works (I obviously wouldn’t be able to see if it works until I can run again) but the other option is surgery which I want to avoid. Go see a doctor though if you continue to have tightness/pain in your calves and foot numbness! Anyways have fun with running and be safe!
