How fast can you guys run a mile?

I'm hella out of shape, but between speed walking/jogging I just ran a 14 minute mile.

Is that bad or about average?

My goal is to obviously lower that time, try for 10 mins then 7.

Did a 5k on Thanksgiving averaged a 7:36 mile.
I think an eight minute single mile is an average
for a healthy 20 something.

It means I'm shure I've ran faster at my soccer practices, just never recorded my times.

After taking a few years off from any real running I hit the gym not to long ago and clocked a 7:30 mile with ease at a consistent jog/trot while texting on my phone lol... Then again I'm a pretty athletic guy...

I did my first 1/2 marathon just under 2 1/2 hours. The first half of it was MUCH quicker than the second half [Big Grin]

Don't focus on time. Just do as much as time allows when you can. You'll get into the shape you want.

Mid-7's was the best I could ever do. Now it'd probably be close to 10 minutes.

I can run almost 5 minute miles on a treadmill but when i trail run i can only run 9s. Treadmills are too easy and you don't really know if you are running a mile machine could be bsing you.

In college we had to run a mile under 6 minutes to make the team. My best was 5:45. I think I could easily run a 7:30 mile right now.
