Guest Ali Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 Doing 10k app and almost halfway (two runs away from 5k so far) however I wanted to know what speed is considered jogging? I'm doing it to lose the very last pounds of weight as I'm still about 15lbs overweight (62 lbs lost so far through diet and weight lifting) The way I'm doing it since begining is 5mph jogging 2mph walking (is that too slow) Your take on this is much appreciated Ps. I'm talking treadmill speed here btw! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Joe Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Treadmill speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Joe Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Jogging is the beginning stage of running. Speed can vary depending on the individual (height, leg length, etc). Just turn up the speed until you can no longer simply walk and have to start jogging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wendy Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 I'm just starting out with the 5k app and I typically walk at a treadmill speed of 3.2 and jog at around 3.7. That's basicaly a speed walk and a slow job for me. My warm up and cool downs are more around a 2.5 walk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest C-bird Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 My walk is 4.0 and my jog is 6.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aj Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 My walk is 5 and jog is 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hlane357 Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 My walk is between 3.5 & 4 and my jog is between 5 & 5.5 since it varies for height I'm 5 ft 7 inches if that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stephanie Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 I walk at 2.5 and run at 6 which is a 10 min mile! I'm on week 11 and it works for me! You can always up it if 6 feels too easy but running over an hour at that pace gets tiring so I personally am keeping it there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jvincent78 Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 Go with what works best for you, and don't be afraid to push yourself a little. TThat's one thing I've noticed between running on a treadmill and out on the trails, out on the trails I can let myself slow down without realizing it.

twingirlmomma Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 I am a very slow jogger. I walk around 3.2-3.5 and jog around 3.7-4 it is what I am comfortable with right now. I am about 80lb overweight though and just finished week 5. I figure I will get faster in time but right now just trying to build the endurance to jog without stopping.

Never ran before at all, so this is comfortable but still challenging at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
