Took my girlfriend with me on a 12 mile long run ... Guess how long she lasted

As long as you can last.

12 miles is not a long run

When did you open your mouth?

A bunch of weight??,!! Geez, is she a plumper??

387 meters

And I give you 7/10

She jogged along with you for 11 miles, and then sped up ran sub-5 for mile 12, finishing two minutes ahead of you, sending you home DEVASTATED!

0/10 did not happen

However you answer won’t be accepted because in your opening statement you confirmed that you lie.

12 miles is never a long run. So your fake scenario is of no interest.

How long do you think she lasted?

I know she wouldn't last very long with me.

There is no way someone who has never ran could complete 12 miles at 720 even though its probably jogging for you. She probably lasted about a half mile and needs to do 3-4 miles well slower than 8 pace right now.

Most females would cough up a lung trying to run 7:20 pace for 150-200 meters to be honest. A woman has to be quite fit to run 3 miles at 8 minute pace. Even being able to complete one mile in 8 minutes would probably put a female in above average fitness. If she is an ex competitive athlete then I have no doubt she is above average and assuming she hasn’t let herself go LOADS I would guess that she is still quite fit and was able to last 1.5 miles at 7:20 pace. Anything more than that for a woman would require definite training (of muscles not used in swimming). If she HAS let herself go loads and is currently fat slob I would say maybe she could last anywhere between 200-500m.

I'm assuming she's about your age so low 20's. Not sure how much weight she's put on since her swimming days, and that's a big factor... I'll guess 1 mile.

50 ft?

You sound like a great boyfriend

Thanks. She made it about three blocks before claiming that “It’s just not my day. Might have to take a rain check. “ She then proceeded to slow to a walk and said the pace was not even a problem.

Drop her now. Her type will always make excuses for her actions. She will never be at fault.

If you stay together, good luck. everyone can change.

Did this once with a girl who has "completed" 3 marathons. Planned an easy 5 miler at 7:30 pace. The girl had to stop to pee, almost immediately, half a block in. Then proceded to slow down to 9:30 pace, practically a walk, and turn around after 1.5 miles and 3 more stops.

Don't take a girl on a training run as a date unless she's already your SO; she'll just have a bad time.
