savoir127 asked:


I want to know, if I train at a certain speed on my treadmill, approximately how fast would that be on the road (with resistance, incline, etc, taken into consideration) at the same perceived effort? I know there isn’t an actual, precise number to convert, but I’d like to know about how much of a drop in speed I will experience.

I love to run on a treadmill, but I want to train seriously for a race, which includes preparing my body for how it will ACTUALLY feel and how fast I will ACTUALLY go. I should just suck it up and run outside, but I find it intimidating.
