Now for a question of my own. I see to have an issue with the first 8-10 minutes of my runs. I'll feel very tired quickly and my pace is much slower than in should be. However, once I make it past 10 minutes things pick up and I feel good.
I'm trying to improve my times for 5-7k, so having a bad first 1/3 is obviously hurting my ability for strong times. Any suggestions? I think it might be a warming up issue - is the solution to just warm up for 5-10 minutes at a very slow speed before I start my "real run"?
