Is running 10K impressive?
The world record 10K times are certainly impressive, but they’re also far from average. Joggers or casual runners will hit the finish line at a range of slower times, generally between 45 and 75 minutes, depending on their fitness level. That’s an average mile time of about 10 minutes, 32 seconds.
What to wear running when it’s windy?
Dress appropriately for the wind. Avoid baggy shirts and shorts, hoods, and lots of layers so that your clothes don’t drag in the wind. Opt for sleek yet protective wicking clothing to keep you warm without overheating.
Does wind slow you down running?
While a tailwind does aid performance significantly, you only “get back” about half of what you put into a headwind when you turn around and run with it at your back. The equivalent headwind (6-minute miles into a 10mph wind) would slow you by about 12 seconds per mile.
What should I wear to run 57 degrees?
You can opt for a t-shirt and capris/tights, or a wicking long-sleeve shirt and shorts. Those are my go-to combinations. If it’s in the very lower 50s, or if you run cold, you could always do a long-sleeve shirt and tights.

As a result of reduced blood flow to the gut, gastric emptying and digestion in your small intestine slow down during high intensity exercise and when core temperature is elevated. To prevent nausea and bloating you want to keep things moving.
Can you run 10 mph wind?
