Can any1 here run a sub-15 minute 3km?

[Kwabena]

I’m here thinking I’m the shyt but I timed myself last night and I ran 3km in 18:41

Decent but not good enough. 12-14 minutes is elite.

Dropped it down to 17:58 tonight. I’m sweating bullets

My splits in the Queens 10K race in June looked like this:

If my calculations are correct, over the second and third miles I was running at a pace faster than 15 min/3K.

But with all the conversions from miles to km, I'm not 100% sure of my math.

My 5k PR is 17: 58 . Never timed a 3k

My fastest 5k was 21:20. Not an amazing time and definitely not that quick at this point but sub 15min 3k is still possible for me.

 

[IsThatBrothaMouzone?]

5k = 27 minutes.

Haven't timed myself at 3k. Trying to get back into 10k shape for the fall

My fastest was 19 minutes and change, but that was 16 years ago. I wanna get back to that, but I’m old and 50 pounds heavier.

Edit, read this wrong. I was thinking 5K.

I'm not sure I could today but if I trained for a month I could. I don't try to do long distances much anymore, it's too brutal on my body.
