10th grade 8th grade

11th grade 9+months of injuries.... just hoping to run again.

I did a 5k in 56:31 earlier this year. I was hoping to run 17:00 but hurt my back a few days before the race. I was so slow, they put my time in a longer race that was going on at the same time. I did "run down" the lady pushing her baby in a stroller the last mile.

Missing your target time by over 200% is impressive. that will be hard to beat.

1500 3.48 & 5.45

5000 14.08 & 22.13

10000 29 mins 43 mins

half 65.36 1.42 (Ok I was pacing someone, but it is still offical)

All from HS freshman year:

800 - 2:22 (first race)

mile indoors - 5:31 (first race)

2 mile indoors - 11:54 (first race)

5K XC - 23:06 on a difficult course which included walking up the last hill.

Good thing it got better from there.

man i'm glad you guys gave those excuses as to why you ran your slowest times, otherwise i would have doubted your speed and how good you are as runners! Nice work guys!

Thanks! :)

I ran 20:03 5k in my first race ever only to learn that it was 500m too long.Anyways, I was beaten by 3 and 1/2 minutes by the top 5 guys from my club.

But the worst embarassment I got was on the track- 10000m, I was in great shape, hoping to run 30min flat, possibly cracking 30, and finished dead last in 37:12. An excuse? No excuse, I just fell victim to vicious surges of the victor (29:57), to which I was (mentally) unprepared. It took me 3 months to mentally recover from that and to run a single step.

Oh, and I ran 1:22:30 half (my Pr is 1:05), no sound explanation, just ran out of energy from hard training probably.

1500 - 4:18 - 4:26 (only ran 4 times)

3000 - 9:17 - 9:31 (ditto)

5k - 16:13 - 19:30ish (have run many of these)

5 mile/8k - 26:42 - 28:low (maybe ran 5 or 6 times)

10k - 34:21 - 40:30ish (have run 20+ times)

half - 1:15 - 1:20 (have run 5 or 6)

M - 2:44 - 3:35 (have run 5)

No excuses come to mind. Was generally in better shape for the better times. Apart from blowing up in marathons, the worst unexpected result was a 1:19 half when I figured I was in 1:14-15 shape.

Personal worsts:

400m race - 68 seconds (best 63)

800m race - 3:08 seconds (best 2:26)

mile race - probably around 7 (best 5:04)

The best times were when I was in high school (I'm a girl) and the worst times: mile - before I started training and was just entered by my school to fill in a space, 800 - illness (glandular fever). I ran an 800 rep in 3:48 around that time too (when I was ill) which has to be the single worst running thing I've ever produced.

When you're over 40 this is easy:

Mile: my next race at this distance

5k: my next race at this distance

10k: my next race at this distance

Marathon: my next race at this distance

That is most unfortunate.

1500- 4:02 & 4:48

1600- 4:30 & 6:02

3000- 9:04 & 9:36

3200- 9:42 & 11:15

5k XC- 16:12 & 19:53

8k XC- 26:30 & 29:52

10k- 33:34 & 36:52

No excuses for me either... just had some rotten times early in my career. Haven't improved some of them much since then, but I've still got some good training ahead of me.

DNF, of course.
