So I did the 1 mile (~1.6km) race challenge on dailymile called outrun the horde:

This morning I mapped out a local course along my road and into the next, quietly wishing it was flat rather than undulating.
Warm-up go was 7:29 (4:32 min/km).
Took a deep breath, opened the taps, and put my foot down.
5:57 for a 3:42min/km pace.
Tough! Really breathing hard at the end and very clearly not used to that pace/effort. Still gives me hope to build up to a sub 20 5km run one day.
Running fast(ish) does make you feel alive - and safe from zombies!

Nice work- sub 6 is great!
Wow, that is a seriously impressive time. Makes me want to go out and find a flat mile and see what I can do!
Smokin!
Gutted my friend J did it in 5:49! I had bragging rights but only briefly. Might try this again in a month or so.
