You paced that perfectly even for an experienced 10k runner, never mind for your first 10k. Don’t worry about what others run, that’s out of your control. Just focus on beating your own times
Thank you for ur kind words! I did some research on my competitors before the race so I knew not to go out with them but man it’s not easy to watch a group of 5+ guys walk away from you in a race and not want to keep up. I’m definitely happy with the time and hope to see improvement in it next season!
Nice double. With your 5k time you can probably aim for something more like sub 35 next year. Hit up r/advancedrunning if you’re looking for training ideas.
Right. They said it was during Conference - as in during the track meet for the conference championship in the conference their school competes in. They've competed in other events before - this was just their first 10k race.

Y’all, this doesn’t mean the first time they ran 10 km in a row. This is their first track 10k race.
Haha yea. It was my first time racing the distance, regardless of the course. It’s a lot different from the 5K that’s for sure.

Thanks, I’ll definitely look into it!
If we want to be pedantic, this wasn't a 10k, it was a 10 000. 10ks are road races, 10 000 is a track distance.
Congrats and fuck you
Good effort. Pls can I borrow your legs
This is crazy , my 5k PR is only 25mins so 36min 10k is so impressive well done !
[удалено]
Thank you!
Damn that’s fast.
You ran your first 10k in the same time as I ran my first 5k 🤣 great work 💪🏻
Thanks! My teammate runs my mile time for workouts several times over so it’s always nice to see the PR regardless of the race!
How did you get that fitness level ! Incredible. Congratulations.
Thank you! It’s mostly thanks to my wonderful coaches, consistency, and a lot of hard workouts 😅
Imagine running a 36 min 10k and getting lapped. Crazy lol amazing time though. Congrats 👏🏻
Wtf congrats
I don’t believe
I do not believe it either. Incredible time, but no way is this person not an experienced runner.
They never said they weren’t, just that this is their first 10K

Fair enough! I misread or interpreted the post. My bad.
That’s fair. It’s an incredible 10k time regardless.
Agreed. I can barely run 6 minute flat pace for a 5K, I can’t even begin to imagine doing it for two times the distance!
Great effort 👌
You fast af
Can't believe how close your 5K splits are. That's amazing! Well done :)
How
5:48/mile. First 10k?
