Hello all, first time to check out this site. I'm hardly ever on the internet but i told a friend of my problem he seemed to think this site could help.
Here is the deal i'm 24 yrs old been running for about 2 years. I played basketball and baseball in high school and then was the normal college type student. So i start running roughly 2 yrs ago when i was in definte need to lose weight and havent really like all the running but was convinced to enter a 5k run and loved it. This run was on thanksgiving day. I ran 14:49 to win first place. My7 freind told me thats really good for what i do running wise. I looked around online and saw it was pretty decent. I've been running 6 days a week, usually 4-5 each run. Here and there i will run 8miles. My pace is hard for every run, my friend says this isnt the best way to get faster. So here i am needing help, what should i do?
