How long to jog 6 miles through traffic?

[RandomJord]

Bus or tube I imagine!

an hour is a good marker to aim for 6 miles for a beginner

i used to do it in about 45 minutes but i never got up to the sub 4 min mark which i wanted to achieve

if you are going to be running on a regular basis get yourself to a running shop and pick up some decent running shoes.. they will make the world of difference. expensive but worth it!

Hope your work has showers   

That they do

But i am planning on going the other way, work to home

how are you going to get there?

Overground

I guess if it gets tough i just hop on the bus

dont, even if you have to walk the last mile, compleate it, if you say that you will get on a buss half way through theres no point because youle just end up wussing out of it every day. jog as far as you can, walk then jog a little bit further.

if you havent done it for a long time then DONT just jump into a 6 mile run, walk a mile, run for 3 then walk the final 2, if you just try and demand too much straight away then youll just hurt yourself, sicken yourself and end up not keeping it up.

also best advice ive read so far is invest in a good pair of trainers. if you have an android/iphone then get runkeeper to keep track of your progress.

How you doing on this? Picked up some nike free+ 5.0's to help me (makes a huge difference) and a nike app. Managed 3 miles comfortably in 28 minutes last night so you should be able to do 6 in an hour. Got my 6 mile charity run this weekend, so need to make 5 before then, do the extra on the day.

Getting there, 3rd week in, 3 days a week, Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Keeping a log on the comp to see how I progress

So far been doing 3 miles and the time has been getting less and less, last Friday and this Monday I did 4 miles, so far so good. Can jog further and further each time without stopping, Monday managed nearly 2 miles without slowing down to a walk. Hoping for better today.

I'd join you for the run to work, but I fear we may end up looking like these two!
