Dictionary

I've had to answer several "how long" questions lately, so here's an explanation of running terms for those who've asked (and those who didn't)

K - Kilometer
5K - 3.1 miles
10K - 6.2 miles
15K - 9.3 miles
20K - 12.4 miles
Half Marathon - 13.1 miles
MARATHON - 26.2 miles
PR - Personal Record
mm:ss Pace - minutes per mile

I'll add more when I think of them... :)
