Question about training for beginner

What are your goals?

gty said:

I am presently training for 5 km as a beginner in first week. They say
to run/walk 20 minutes on alternate days. I ran 2.8 kms in 21 minutes
today quite effortlessly and walked 5 kms and ran another 1.3 kms in 9
minutes, but that is only 30 minutes of running. I really want to
accelerate this.

Be patient. "Accelerating" your training will not "accelerate" your results.

Can i run 30 minutes in morning and 30 minutes at
night?

That's an overkill at this stage.

Quoted message said:

should i add bike riding and weight lifting. i would think i can

Not really.

Quoted message said:

handle 4 hrs per day of exercise. i am 42. i am training full-time at
this point so i want to use every minute in the day if possible.

Use the other minutes on recovery. Recovery is as important as training.
Recovery is where the adaptions occur. Training breaks your body down, it's
during recovery that you get stronger.

Given a circle, the apothem is the perpendicular distance r from the
midpoint of a chord to the circle's center. It is also equal to the
radius R minus the sagitta s,

For a regular polygon, the apothem simply is the distance from the
center to a side, i.e., the inradius r of the polygon. Chord, Circular

I recommend the morning AND evening runs, AND cycling, AND weight
lifting. You see, when you're out there sweating, you're not in here

and when your resting can dream of Miss A thorpe..... Gerrrrrrrrr

shut up Bill she is not a man.....

I want to compete in adventure racing. There is a race on mar 26. I
know this girl who does it. I need to impress her.

I post wirelessly as i exercise so i don't see the logic of your
harmful advice.

That is what I suspected. It does seem strange though to only do
something for 20 minutes per day. I usually go mountain climbing for 11
hrs.

sorry Miss A Thorpw
and Bill......

Latter

11 miles a day. 16 today.....
rec riding....kya......

ok, now you're just teasing me.

I have been doing 11 hr hikes into the mountains but only once a week
with no exercise for rest of week other than walking. I guess i go
quite slow on the hikes but i am huffing and puffing most of the way. I
recently went on hike with a girl who runs and stuff and she smoked me
up the mountain. She does adventure racing and stuff. I think my main
asset is masochism and endurance.
