Ford, Volkswagen and Porsche, for example, recommend oil changes every 10,000 miles. So does Toyota on several engines, including the Prius' 1.8-liter four-cylinder and the Camry's 2.5-liter four-cylinder. BMW says owners can go up to 15,000 miles between oil changes (with synthetic oil).
âHighâ fitness women ran the mile in nine minutes or less; âmoderateâ fitness women ran it in 10 minutes and 30 seconds or less and âlowâ fitness women needed 12 minutes or more to complete the mile. Run for Life states that a 10-minute mile rate is good for beginners; the goal is to complete 3 miles in 30 minutes. If a 10-minute mile rate seems out of reach, start with a 12-minute rate and then work downward.
RE: new runner - how long should it take me to run 5k? (1) For a new runner, I think a good goal would be to average under 7 minutes per mile for a 5k. 6:59 pace x 3.1 miles = 21:39. (2) After that I'd imagine 20:00 is a nice barrier. To run 19:59 you'd need to average 6:26's. (3) 18:59 - now you're starting to get a little more serious.
