The course is 5000m (5k) long. This has been accurately measured by us with a professional measuring wheel. The course is at the Cedar River Trail, Renton. The course is run entirely on permanent paths.

I did a 10k once and at the event they were also doing a 5k. When they were doing pre-race announcements the guy says the 5k course was more like 4 miles. Kind of a big difference if anyone actually wanted to run a 5k lol. It was a trail run so I think they were a little looser with it.

Running a metric distance but measuring the pace in imperial is so disorientating.

@@Anthony-mh7ix First of all wtf do you mean except the marathon? Every marathon I've run has used the metric system, as they should. Secondly, the only Europeans that uses miles in any shape or form are British and some Irish. Don't lump an entire continent in with the idiots that decide to not use the scientific units the entire world agrees upon. Thirdly, the original comment's point wasn't even about the distance meassuring unit, it was about using two different systems for pace and distance. 5k split's nicely into 5 1k splits, funny how that works. Using min/miles is absurd.

Its funny to think of boulder as altitude training. I live there and constantly feel like im out of altitude shape when i go run up in the high country 😂

So you realise it's relative right... Boulder might be high enough for some people (who live at lower altitudes) to get good benefits from it but if you live there then ofcourse your body will already be adapted to those conditions and you'll need to go higher if you want to get the kind of adaptations that will improve your fitness.

@icarusgotooclose

13 күн бұрын

@gargantuangouda605 1) it's not relative, it's a change in your red blood cells specific to the altitude you're at If a person from 3000 ft and a person from sea level both went to 5000 ft, after 6 weeks they would both have 5000 ft red blood cells because that's how long it takes to replace all your blood Someone from 5000 ft already has that blood, they don't need to go higher to get that specific benefit, but they will all experience altitude effects at 10,000 ft (though this specific bit will be relative to what elevation they come from) 2) you totally misunderstood my comment. Seems like you think I was being pretentious rather than just remarking on amusing differences in people's life experiences

Do the RBCs really increase in quality and quantity after acclimatizing? Here in the Himalayas only the mountain dweller genetics have a high hemoglobin (long term "tourists" don't really get any fitter, i think it's just placebo at 20,000 or 29,000 ft or maybe the height is too extreme)

@icarusgotooclose

10 күн бұрын

@@high-captain-BaLrog I think you're right to an extent. Acclimating does involve changes to your blood for everyone and you will continue to see those effects once you leave altitude while your blood changes out, but it's certainly not permanent unless you come from specific genetic communities who have lived in the high alpine for centuries like the Nepalis and Inca. What I was talking about specifically was acclimating. Some claim you can get fitness benefits from training at altitude but I think it's mostly that training above where you're acclimated to will push you aerobically sooner into the work out than where you're used to. But the exercise you get in that state isn't superior to just getting yourself to that state by other means like running longer or faster. So there are benefits but I think it's mostly overblown.

"The course was really long"... yeah, 5k, we know.

Most Americans log training based on mileage and "x-minute mile" pace notes. Metric splits for a race of a metric distance makes perfect sense on paper, but a 4-minute kilometer pace to somebody that doesn't use that notation really doesn't mean anything to them.

​@@Jakawak well put. Yeah, mentally we just think of things in terms of mile pace (or per-mile pace), so unless we're on a track doing repetitions of 400's, 800's or 1000's (or whatever else), we're likely off-track and doing things based on mile pace. So thanks for explaining that lol

“The course was really long” *runs a 5k*

Running my first 5k in Dec I want these times. How can I train?

I have lived in Boulder all my life and seeing this makes me proud of my home city

With altitude training the current strategy is to train in high altitude and rest in low altitude. Spend your days in boulder, but train in the mountains.

1. It’s elevation, not altitude. 2. Saying you were training at altitude/elevation is like saying you drank a glass of water at temperature.

The literature indicates that training at altitude is not optimal. The reduced oxygen levels inhibit your ability to train to mac effort. Instead, sleep at altitude and train at sea level

Did he say this course is long? Its the same length as any other 5K race

Take your slow stuff slow and workouts focus on staying controlled until the last rep or two also for mileage just build up slow idk your fitness level but 19:10 is pretty good going into high school it’s what I ran I wasn’t much of a cc runner my freshman year but I did run 2:03 800 and 4:47 mile I think if you have a good summer and try to run 3-4 miles per day then build up you can easily break 18:00 if not 17:30

This guy running a 5k: "the course is really long" Isn't it 5k?

“The course was really long?” I was under the impression it was 5000 meters 🤔

Stay high, train low.

I live in Alberta, Canada. So many people come here to train because of our high altitude. It's weird how much easier it is to breathe at sea level, when you live at 1215m (3986ft) above on the regular.

sleep in the height train on normal altitude is the way to go.

Altitude camps are an excuse pro athletes use to get the doctors in for doping. Makes the passport discrepancies more explainable. Doesn’t work for ordinary people not taking drugs. Drug free studies of top athletes at altitude training show mixed results at best with most of the data showing it mainly improves performance at altitude. Though running a 15 min 5 k is impressive. You probably didn’t get the gains from the altitude. More likely the going to altitude was coupled with better more consistent training nutrition and recovery which is almost always the case. If you start running ads for those tents or masks 😂

You know mins/km is more scientific and more known to the rest of the world right?
