5K (3.11 mile) Treadmill Run in 24:06

5K Treadmill Run in 24:06

Got on the treadmill tonight with the expectation of running a slower paced 5k. I started the treadmill off at 7.6 (just below an 8 min/mile pace), and proceeded to run at that speed until the 4K mark. With 1K remaining I upped the speed to 10.0 (6 min/mile pace) and finished the run. I ultimately finished the 5K run in 24:06 for an average pace of 7:44/mile. According to nikeplus I burned 431 calories.

2.01 Treadmill Run in 14:22

2.01 Mile Treadmill Run in 14:22

After work this evening I got home and decided to get in a run before eating dinner. After changing and heading downstairs, I decided first to recalibrate the nike + system to be more accurate. After calibrating it last night, I realized I overcalibrated it, so it was actually saying I was running faster/further than I really was. After adjusting it tonight and starting on a 2 mile run, I realized I under adjusted it again. So, I was running at a 7:30 pace according to the treadmill, but the nike plus system was only saying about 7:44.

I ended up finishing the 2.01 mile run in 14:22 for an average pace of 7:07 per mile. My first mile was in about 7:20ish, so my second mile ended up at 6:54 which broke my nike plus mile record again. I ended up burning 277 calories.
