You'd be amazed how many fatasses can waddle out 5 kilometers.

Last marathon I ran, I was checking the 'max' times - my calf had been bothering me during training and I was worried I might have to walk for a little while.

They do the 5k,10k,and marathons in the same rule set, just at different times.

They close the course down at a 16 min mile pace. I couldn't fucking believe it. I walk the dog that fast. As in - not even running or racing. I try to hit an 8:00/mile pace, and here I was worried about being disqualified if I didn't make a 10 min pace or something.

Reminds me of my favorite all-time post on here it says some fat girl in denial "I can't be fat, I run!!" - for "verification, posted a pic of her with the marathon bib. Some random shit Lord says "what pace do you waddle at? All I see is a fat girl with a sign"

Burned.

Exactly. The distance doesn't fucking matter. It's the speed that is key. My children are 5 and with hilly terrain they can walk 5k no problem. Walk, not run.
