how fast can you run a mile?

[Mr. Foxx Foxx]

When I run, I usually run for at least two to three miles at a time, so I'm usually pacing myself a little bit, but I average around 6 to 7 min miles. Sprints/jogging intervals, is one way to train your self to run faster.

Sprint for a minute- or as long as you can top speed, then recover for a minute or so- repeat.

During the recovering are you slow jogging, or can you walk?

At the moment, 8:34. My best is 5:27. All on treadmill.

when I run on the treadmill (and I DESPISE that), I can run 8 min miles pretty much the entire 5 miles because there's no wind, no inclines, and the ground moves under you, which makes it easier than running outside.

My half pace was 9:16 a mile...With my fastest mile coming in at 8:28

Are y'all posting speed settings on the treadmill instead of actual minutes on the clock

During the recovering are you slow jogging, or can you walk?

You can walk. Just don't walk for too long- don't completely recover. Eventually, you'll be able to do your interval training with jogging for 'active rest' rather than walking.

6-7 minutes back in hs

6:43 just last week too.

I dont think I can go faster than that though. I was fukking dead. I'd rather do HIIT.

 

[TL15]

One mile Is a little over 2000 steps it all depends on how fast your running... if I'm jogging It will probably take me 5 mins

You know a 5 minute mile is 12 on the treadmill right?

the world record is 3:43 but you can jog a 5 minute mile...

on topic though I'm between 6-7 if I'm running. did a 1/2 marathon earlier this year and just missed under 2 hours. Like 9:39 per for 13.1 miles

 

[25YOUTHS!!]

I know some people that consistently run sub 8min. miles for like 5+ miles, but can't break 7min. PR for mile on a track.
All depends on if you're trying to specifically train for a mile run or bring your average time down.

I think some cats are telling in here. hardly ANYONE can run a 5 minute mile. as you said that is 12mph on the treadmill and a VERY fast pace to maintain for that distance/time.

 

[Maddmike]

630....

I'm a fast walker, I can walk a mile pretty fast, so I'm sure I can run a mile pretty fast

In highschool the fastest I ran timed was 4:29 at 205lbs but I know I ran faster after untimed. I hadnt peaked in my training routine yet and was still bulking. I think the fastest I ever was, was freshman year college. My acl felt bulletproof, and my 40 was the fastest it had ever been at that point so I had to be a little quicker. Timed during my football workout. I used to run track too though so eh.

 

[Bless't]

It'll probably take me at least 8 minutes to run a mile right now.. Probably closer to 9 really.... I've only ran a sub 7 mile maybe twice in my life... and that was in my teens and early 20s...

But fukk a mile.... What that 40 yard time or 100 time be?

4.58 in college. At 205lbs.

 

[Sterling Archer]

I never run a single mile because it doesnt make me tired at all. I always do at least 5 miles. and I have a lingering bum hamstring still.

that being said, I can run 5-7 mile runs at a pace of about 8:40 per mile on a good day (not too windy or hot/humid outside or snow on the ground).

this is me yesterday:

I see yo ass ran by Mario's Italian Ice on the trip back. You not slick.
