Running 4.5 miles a day?!


Question: I run this in about an hour on my treadmill, is this speed too slow?


Answers: I run this in about an hour on my treadmill, is this speed too slow?

I would describe this as a very slow jog. This is good exercise for burning calories but you are probably getting very little aerobic benefit. Although you are probably doing more than the average American.

However, if you are out of shape and just starting to exercise, this is probably a good start. I would say your average 30-40 year old person who is in decent shape could jog at a pace of a mile every 7-8 minutes.

I am assuming as well that you have no major health problems where vigorous aerobic activity is not an option.

no, definitely not at an hour pace either. And its great if you do this daily

Well idk..But when i was in soccer we ran 4 miles in 30mins!..So maybe it is... How old are u though?
