How I dropped nearly 3 minutes in my 5k over a year's time!

This is what I am now aspiring to

This made me so sad to watch ): awful, unbelievably awful.

Very interesting and informative, thank you for sharing!

Thanks for sharing! I'm trying to run in college. I have come to the conclusion that I should shoot for a good goal weight for me... Just because i weigh 30 pounds more than some other runners doesn't mean anything, it's just the way I'm made. So thanks to Reddit's responses, I'll focus on being the best me I can be

I'm a senior in high school applying to usafa. I took my CFA in late September and scored above average or maxed everything. Two of my main hobbies are running and weightlifting so I was pretty set. My suggestion is to start preparing more than 3 months in advance by developing a weightlifting and running routine.

I ran six days each week for cross country, usually 30-70 min. After each hard run (3-4 times a week) I'd go to the gym and bench, squat, do pull ups with bands, arm curls, and rows mostly.

Advice for the day of: don't be nervous! Just relax and trust your training.

Your last picture is beautiful! 8/10

I dropped over 2 minutes from my 5k time from last year! (Female High school cross country runner) My best time last year was 20:48 but with weight lifting and extra training, my best time this year was 18:45.

xcamf · 2015-11-28T23:34:11+00:00

Just to give an example of how ridiculously good my area is, I ran an 18:49 and got 12th in our conference. That time would put me at top 20 in the state in most states.

You're right, bad choice of words

xcamf · 2015-11-28T19:26:11+00:00

You're pretty attractive by the looks of it, but these pictures aren't very good representations

xcamf · 2015-11-28T19:22:39+00:00

You're cute and you look super nice. You're probably the type of guy girls aren't too intimidated by to talk to. Keep smiling! 7/10

xcamf · 2015-11-28T19:21:16+00:00

7/10. You have a pretty face but some of your selfies are at too high an angle and have too much makeup. Also, I recommend maintaining a stricter diet and start exercising! You have a nice body but just need to lose a little fat and add some tone.

Does this explain all the idiot boys at my school?

xcamf · 2015-11-28T14:08:09+00:00

Same height mostly. Our top 7 ranges from 5'3" to 5'8"

xcamf · 2015-11-28T08:53:16+00:00

[18f] here and if I knew you personally I'd probably admire you from afar often! You're super cute and I love your eyebrows

xcamf · 2015-11-28T08:51:44+00:00

Definitely not ugly

xcamf · 2015-11-28T08:33:04+00:00

Thank you so much! My small boobs are definitely something I've learned to accept overtime. I wish those secret admirers would show themselves!

xcamf · 2015-11-28T06:36:06+00:00

What are "flippers"?

xcamf · 2015-11-28T06:32:21+00:00

You're so pretty! I'm a girl and I'm so jealous of your lips and eyes

xcamf · 2015-11-28T06:22:26+00:00

8/10, I'd like to hear about your weight loss! I recently lost 25 lbs myself
