I started running last spring. I'm not great, but I enjoy it. Currently, I run just slightly over an 8:00 pace, but I could probably get just under that if I were competing in a 10k or maybe about 7:45 in a 5k.
It's a great way to lose weight and burn off stress. I've been running 3-4 times a week, but I've just started doing sprints again as well. I will probably run 2-3 times a week and do the sprints 2-3 times as well. The sprints are hell, but they build muscle quickly. You will see visible changes in your body in just a few weeks if my past experience is any indication.
