17:18 in my only race on a slow windy course and winning by 3 minutes which I would say would = maybe a 13:18 on the track in Europe getting pulled along.

Nobody cares about your BS excuses. Just post your slow time and move aside.

30
16:20 in the first 5K of a half-marathon. I also ran 16:07 last May in a road race where I was still in the porta potty when the gun went off and I ended up giving the entire field a 50 meter head start. I ran too hard the first mile to catch up and then tried to break the race open halfway through. I felt like I could've maybe run 15:40-15:50 if that hadn't happened. I then got sick shortly after, but I think if I stayed healthy and stuff I would've been sub-15:30 for sure by the end of the summer. I have now bumped my mileage up to 100+ and am training well again.

Sounds about right. I take it you are using the official Ventolin conversion factors.

47 years old.

Since I haven't raced any this year, that was my fastest 5k run at the end of a 14 mile progression run.

25/F/50-60 mpw. I have not run a 5K this year, but last fall I ran 20:42. There, now the rest of you slow people can come out of hiding and post yours.

Yeah, but that was probably under less than ideal conditions. I'd say that converts to somewhere around 15 flat under good conditions.

33
16:14 in December (a PR)
averaging just above 40 miles a week, with lots of variation (as low as 30, and as high as 55 a week).

I'm now running much more consistently--building from low 50s into the mid/upper 60s mpw. I'm hoping to run well under 16 in May...

Btw, where are all the folks who usually claim to be running 14s and low 15s??? When I opened this thread I was sure I'd see tons of them.

True story. It was at 5,000 ft altitude and we drove 3 hours there the morning of the race. That should convert to 15:03.54.

They're all on the retirement money thread claiming to be making $250k and socking away $50k per year.

Have no clue because stupid people screwed up on marking the course and volunteers had no clue what was going on. But, guessing around 21'00. Coming off 3 major injuries from Dec. 2010 to now.

28, 50 per week, 16:30 in 2011, no 5ks so far this year.

A disappointing fall overall. I ran a 4:30 road mile though and was okay with that.
