That’s basically a 30 minute 5k, which is a healthy pace for a layman but won’t get close to winning you any races

6.2 what per mile

like

I think it's 6.2 MPH

6.2 mph is a little more than a 9 minute mile — if you’re relatively healthy, that shouldn’t even up your heart rate that much over 30 mins

Tell us you’re in shape and drink FitAid without telling us you’re in shape and drink FitAid

It’s not fast at all but it’s fine especially if you’re older/heavier.

If you’re talking 6.2 min per mile then yes that’s definitely fast as a layman.

My bad it’s 6.2 mph.

Most runners use “minutes per mile, not MPH”

Just my $.02 - you can be “in shape” or healthy and not a runner…

I'm trying to suss out if a new member of our dept hates me or my team (she manages a different team).

My initial take is she's just hard to read and probably a tightly controlled introvert. My direct report felt she's 'cold as ice,' 'bristling' at our suggestions, and forming a clique that wants to do their own thing with no input from our team. He's triggered very easily, and there was no explicit evidence, just a 'vibe' so I wrote it off. (See 1st comment)

I have never gone to the gym or really worked out, and want to make a change in my life to start exercising. I'm not sure how to handle post-workout showering though.

First time growing out hair and it's coarse/wavy/dry so it takes days for oils to distribute (so oily scalp) due to pushing off washing -- when I do wash, I shampoo only the scalp and will conditioner the rest of my hair. I'm afraid of overwashing, but if I don't wash my hair after I sweat, it will frizz and poof up. Any advice?
