5K Distance Tips
| Just a reminder that 5k is 3.1 miles (.1 miles is the length of two football fields, minus twenty yards). We know that many of you may have your own favorite 3 mile route/s measured out. In case you don't here are a few tips on measuring out your own 3.1 mile route.
|
- Out & Back course: Use your car odometer to measure 1.5 miles from your house or another starting point, don't forget the .1 mile.
- On a Track: If one is available close to you, it would be 12.5 laps around using the inside lane.
- Out of this world experience (but inadvisable): measure out 10 yards, run back and forth while your kids or dog counts the amount of times, until you have done it 546 times.
