Yup. turtle here. I am completely fine with it. I do still make little goals, but the main thing I like is finishing and not feeling like I am gonna die, so to me that has been a good feeling.
It's all relative. Trust me, we're all slow to someone, and even though you might not realize it, I bet you're fast to someone too. Just keep at it! Congrats on your run!!
You gals are so encouraging. This is awesome. I think that's a great time. My mile time (not fast) has plateaued in the last few weeks and I was struggling with it.

Another turtle here. I have the feeling I am at my fastest, but at least it's still a lot faster than before I did nothing. Congrats on your milestone!

Another Turtle here! I have realized over the past year that I enjoy running much more when I just go slow and don't try to push the pace. I raced a lot last year and got burnt out always trying to beat my PR. You get to enjoy the scenery more when you go slow
congrats on your longest run to date! You should be proud, who cares how long it takes?! I am pretty slow myself, and I am ok with that as long as I finish
