Fastest Mile Time
I was just curious - what is your all-time best mile time? I am currently a sophomore in high school and am nearing the end of my Track season. My personal record for the mile came about two weeks ago at 4:49.1 and I am running the mile again at this Friday's sectional meet, where my goal is to go under 4:43.
I know there have to be some runners in here, what is your best time?
Re: Fastest Mile Time
30.31 seconds.what is your all-time best mile time?
Ofcourse that was with my car. (120 mph)
Abandon all hope.
Re: Fastest Mile Time
When I use to run it was 5:30. 4:49 is damn impressive though. I think the best on our track and cross country team could do it in around 4:30 something.Originally Posted by Cowhead418
Re: Fastest Mile Time
Never run miles. Too short. My 6-mile time though is on 27 minutes - depending on the day it can be as much as 25 or a little as 35 - .

Re: Fastest Mile Time
Don't remember my best mile but my best two mile for the APFT was 13:30. Not bad for a half a pack a day.
Re: Fastest Mile Time
You run 6 miles in 27 minutes? Somehow I doubt that. That is average mile time of 4:30 a mile.Never run miles. Too short
Re: Fastest Mile Time
I'm 15 and I can do a 5:37 mile. That is however a score I got when I had tendonitis (sp?) in my hip. Next year I'll do a lot better (assuming tendonitis will not be so bad).

Re: Fastest Mile Time
3 miles up, 3 miles down. My measuring device was a car though. I.e. I've driven the distance to make sure its 6 miles. I don't know, maybe on foot I cut corners or something, but that is the time. Add half a mile another 5 minutes if you want. Or maybe I'm just very fit.

If that is your real pace, you should be on the olympic team3 miles up, 3 miles down. My measuring device was a car though. I.e. I've driven the distance to make sure its 6 miles.

Re: Fastest Mile Time
I don't have the frame to be a speed runner (averaging around 6 min. per mile) but my endurance 5 mi. is around 27 minutes.
Re: Fastest Mile Time
I can't say I've ever run faster than 7:05 for a mile. My 2 mile run is usually in the mid to high 1400s. Never been a fast runner though. I can run for fairly long distances and I can march all bloody day though with a pack and full kit.
How long have you guys been training at running? I'd like to improve my times to at least the mid six minutes. Any good techniques besides just running and pushing yourself harder each time?

Re: Fastest Mile Time
I'm no sprinter; my mile time is probably around six minutes. It's been so long since I've run just one mile.
Re: Fastest Mile Time
Hmm... depends, two miles in 10:00 is pretty common for me, I can probably do 1 mile in 4:45 or less.
Re: Fastest Mile Time
that was a lie btw.
it should be 22,5 (Volvo of my boss 150 MPH)
Running a mile proably would take me several hours.

Re: Fastest Mile Time
Mines probably several hours too. Kinda sad.that was a lie btw.

Re: Fastest Mile Time
That is VERY sad. You are supposed to be able to walk a mile in twelve minutes. That's a confortable walk. I'm sure you guys could do WAY better than severl hours. I know I'm taking it literal, but I know what you mean.Mines probably several hours too. Kinda sad.
Re: Fastest Mile Time
Yea, if all of you ran the times that you said, you would be track all stars. I am a freshman in high school and i run about a 6:15 mile. That is above average for a 15 year old. So if you guys are all you say you are and the age you say u are then you should be track stars and maybe even some olypians.

Re: Fastest Mile Time
I don't do track at my school, but I can get a 5:49 in the mile. At my school, the soccer program as well as the coach is very hard. I play soccer as a freshman in highschool on the varsity line. Because I am a freshman though, I'm in the JV period, because that's where you start as a freshman. I'm 15 and I can still run that time. I'm not even the fastest. A kid who was in the soccer program at my school didn't make any of the teams (varsity or junior varsity), so decided to run track. He said track is easier than soccer, so it doesn't really matter if the purpose of track is running.
Anyway, I'm sure a couple people have put the wrong times here, as this seems near impossible for some of them, but I'll let you know, I'm not lieing.
Re: Fastest Mile Time
Actually, I am a distance runner and do both Cross Country and Track. I have been training for about four months now. If I were a track "all-star" I would be running in the low 4:20s. Olympic runners would be below 4:00. As you can see, I'm a far from being close to either of these two times. Twenty seconds is a big hurdle to jump, so to speak.

Re: Fastest Mile Time
Of course track is easier than football, in football you are pretty much sprinting around for 90 minutes, in track events you pace yourself.

Re: Fastest Mile Time
You've gotta take into account that you have take a break for a snack or two and computer breaks and such plus the fact that I will have to sit down and drink some water a couple of times so if you add that all together that adds up to a couple of hours.That is VERY sad.

No, I wasn't talking about you or anyone for that matter.
