Your Mile time

[Arrow]

I know we're all sprinters, but I was wondering what your mile times are? Also list whether you run 100, 200, or 400. 800m shouldn't be included, however, because they're considered more of the distance type. As for me, my mile time SUCKS

[skifree]

I run 110 hurdles, tj/lj/hj, and my mile time is a staggering 5:47!

[Brumund-Smith]

4:45 (road race)

[one_more_hurdler]

4:56...time trial freshmen year (the only time i ever ran it)

[hurdlingham123]

i'm no distance runner, and i've never actually run just a mile race, but my best split in cross country was a 6:46 (i'm a girl)

[one_more_hurdler]

i'm no distance runner, and i've never actually run just a mile race, but my best split in cross country was a 6:46 (i'm a girl)

wait...are you saying that you ran 6:46 all 3 splits? cuz that really good for a girl. our #1 girl ran 19:34 and made it to borderclash (washington vs. oregon) and you're only 4 sec off her pr with a 19:38.

[wineturtle]

45 years ago I ran a 4:50i &was a 23.5r/53.5r guy

[Renbircs]

Split doesn't mean average pace.

How is it possible that all of you are so fast in the mile when the statistics say that only like 10% of the sprint event is aerobic? Where do you get your aerobic endurance from?

[Sprints07]

I threw down a 5:10 my freshmen year, I run the 100 200 and 400.

[remiks]

Talent; some distance runners can come down and run 11.x and 23.x.

[Andre.]

I run like a 5:10-20ish mile. I also run the 400, but am moving up to distance instead.

[boon322]

im a 110H guy, 15.27

my mile time is 5:11 from last fall, i didn't get a shot to run it this year though so ill have to wait til the gym mile to throw down PR (unless i have a meet that day like usual)

[Speed-driven]

i run the 400m..and my best mile time is 5:20..this crazi girl at my school..runs a 5:17 mile..iunno about her 3 mile though..id say 18 something..

[rhssprinter]

I'm a girl, my best is like 6:30ish

[Sully 800]

I've split a 5:04 in a 3 mile race, doesnt mean I ran a 15:12.

[Arrow]

I'm assuming all you sprinters are exceptions. What's a good mile time for a sprinter aiming at 24 200m and 56 400m ?

[Sum_Bum]

3:59

[sprinter200]

4:59 i run 200/400s

[AtownTx-Jurdler]

i dont think it really matters, though if your a sprinter and are not able to run at least a 6:10 mile, then I think you still need to get in better shape


I am a hurdler/400m/TJ
never ran a mile in a meet .. never plan to lol .. cept a 1500 for a decathalon
fastest 1600 5:23

[MaroonCat1600]

wow your fast

[In_The_Shadows]

I'm a 100, 200, 400 guy and I ran 5:06 my sophomore year (I'm a senior), and that was the only time i've ever run one all out. I don't plan on trying to run the mile again in the near future.

[AtownTx-Jurdler]

wow your fast

i like your sarcasm

[gazzelle5]

ran a 1500m in 4:47 couple years ago in the pent. should be able to break 5 in the mile now

[riggles]

1600-4:27
400-55.7
200-25.5
100-12.9
55-8.7

[donegalxcrunner]

I'm a mid-distance runner in track and obviously a distance runner in XC.
I run the 400m and 800m in track but I run my 1600m fairly OK.
My PR in the 1600m is -4:42

-John

[MontyXC1]

i think about 3/4 of these people are lying

[clifbar]

My school's records in the 400m and mile are held by the same guy, who ran them in like 1964. Apparently he ran about a 50 second 400m, and they needed him to run the mile in a dual meet, so he ran a 4:24, and never ran it again. He never ran the 800 either.

[Sum_Bum]

I'm pretty level

400- 55.9
800- 2:05.1
1600- 4:42.2

I do distance though

[DuBey9]

4:41 (freshman year) sophmore this year

[Sprints07]

Thats friggin crazy. The mile is about 10X more impressive than the 400. He prolly could've ran a killer 800. Thats really odd though.

[Sum_Bum]

Your PRs are fat!

I feel bad for your school not having one guy under 4:25 in 41 years.

yea, thats cool. but im guessin that the guy w/the two records ran the mile and dropped down to the 400.USUALLY milers n such can run at least one fast lap. but idk,maybe i'm wrong

[Sully 800]

Your PRs are fat!

I doubt it

[PurpleHaze]

I feel bad for your school not having one guy under 4:25 in 41 years.

My school hasn't had anyone under 4:30 in 45 years.

[riggles]

1600-4:27
400-55.7
200-25.5
100-12.9
55-8.7

Ha yeah maybe but I wasn't. Like Sum Bum I'm a distance runner. I just saw the title of this thread and wanted to see what it was about. The only legitimate times on there though are my 1600 and 400. The 1600 was at states and the 400 was in some dual meet that I ran the 400 in to get some extra points and some speed work. The 200 was in a workout in indoor this year, the 100 was at the end of practice sophomore year I think and the 55 was when I was a freshman and got stuck running the 55 in the beginning of indoor because I was fat and slow.

[skifree]

haha yea.. im just about the direct opposite of you^.

55HH- 7.9
110HH- 14.8/ 15.07 FAT
400IH- 58.5
LJ-21-1
TJ-46-3
HJ-6'
and when i was a freshmen I ran distance and was the worst runner on my team.
800- 2:38?
1600- 5:47
3200- 13:40... damn i was good at that race

[riggles]

Ha yeah wasn't it a great feeling to find what you're good at and improve?

[adidas400]

i run the 400 only and i do it in around 53 seconds and i ran the mile in gym in 5:43

[Sully 800]

i think about 3/4 of these people are lying

I doubt that also....why do you think 3/4 of the people would lie?

[one_more_hurdler]

I've split a 5:04 in a 3 mile race, doesnt mean I ran a 15:12.

i know...im a sprinter that runs xc. i just about always go out in about 5:15 to 5:20, but my best 5k time is only 17:09. i was just saying that if she ran all of her 3 miles consistent, that it would be a good time. so i was asking if she did.

[Sully 800]

If someone is pointing out a miel split in a 5k chances are they mean its their fastest split, and thats why its significant.

whats your name?

[AtownTx-Jurdler]

ur really good at everything from the 400-5k
not that your 1 and 2 are bad

[Sully 800]

His 1600 and 3 mile are signifcantly worse than his 400 and 800. I would say the quality of his events from best to worst are as follows...

800m 1:51.6
400m 47.9
200m 22.5
1600m 4:25/3miles 15:30
100m 11.3

I have a hard time debating which is best between the last 3....they all seem fairly even.

[trackrunner47]

My name is Stephen.

o its a 3mile not a 5k, still impressive
and i agree with the first two
im at a stand still with the rest

[trackrunner47]

I ran the mile one time it was my FR year and all the other times are from last year.

[runninsteve06]

I'm more of a distance runner but I've ran...

200-26
400-56
800-2:07 (which is considered a sprint or mid-distance)
1600-4:46
3200-10:44
3 mile-16:04
5k-16:45

Actually the Mile could also be considered a sprint (Pro runners) but for HS we'll just say it's not but there are a few that can run a pretty impressive 4 min. mile which is really good for a HS athlete.

[AtownTx-Jurdler]

in pro 800-1500m runners are considered middle distance runners

[Skibum657]

I ran a 5:34 sophomore year. I haven't run it seriously since.

My sprinting prs are 11.09 100 and 52.34 400.

[Dalau]

Split doesn't mean average pace.
give em a break. lol, they're sprinters.


anywys, there was a 200/400m runner at my school in the 1960s named Mark Young. He ran 21.8 and 49.1, and one day, the coach needed him to score some extra points in a dual meet. he ran the mile that day and ran a 4:24!!! :eek: Too bad he never ran the 800m, or did more endurance running (I'm not sure if he did or not.). I got this info from my HS coach.

I have a hard time debating which is best between the last 3....they all seem fairly even.

i have a hard time debating rather or not hes telling the truth or not...for washington marks that 800 time would be an all time state record, the 400 would have won state this year, the 200 would have taken top 5, the 100 would have taken 3rd, and the mile would have placed. the state champion ran a 15:24 in xc too. his time is only 6 sec off that. so if you could run more then 4 events, this kid would get 6 medals. im pretty sure that if he ran a 15:30 5k he could run a sub 10 min 2 mile.

[AtownTx-Jurdler]

dont you add like 30-45 seconds to a 3mile to bump it up to a 5k?


but yea, i've been pretty skeptical, i just didnt want to say it and then it would turn out that he was this really good guy everyone knows about

[Dalau]

I feel bad for your school not having one guy under 4:25 in 41 years.
We had a 4:25 and 4:26 miler if i remember correctly. His name was Vihann Kong (1996,1997ish. 2nd all-state in 800m). i'm not sure about the other guy, or if there was another guy. We also had a 4:30 miler and a 4:32 miler a few years ago.

[Brumund-Smith]

We had a kid run 1:54.3 and 4:19.1 in 1986, and nobody else has even SNIFFED those times in the last 20 years.

[trackrunner47]

All the time are my PR you can think what you whut.

im not sure how much time you add to convert it to 5k. but i dont think its 45 sec. that seems kinda high to me.

[slowest kid on the team]

All the time are my PR you can think what you whut.


proof? not that i dont beliueve you, im just curious about what races you ran those times in.

[Jayhawk]

400- 49.30
600- 1:19.24
800- 1:52.82
Mile- 4:35 (cross country course)

[Sum_Bum]

im not sure how much time you add to convert it to 5k. but i dont think its 45 sec. that seems kinda high to me.


Depends how slow you are going...it should be between 36-45

[one_more_hurdler]

Depends how slow you are going...it should be between 36-45

wow that much? i was thinking like 15sec. lol

[Sum_Bum]

The old conversion I used to do was (5k time/3)/8-(5k time/3) *3 for 3 mile split...reverse for a rough estimate of 5k.

EDIT: Assuming 1600m=1 mile

[trackrunner47]

Well i won state in the 800m in Illinois that is all i have to show. But they are my PRs

[barton_hurdler]

5:00 or 4:50 not sure which one, junior year of HS-indoors on a basketball gym at 12 1/2 laps so nobody knows how exact of distance it really is.

[one_more_hurdler]

[ARAGON FroBoy]

Stephen Williams, Marion (H.S.) 1:51.84

[one_more_hurdler]

damn thats really smoken.

[sprintdistance]

I've ran 4:55 in XC practice and it was our fourth mile repeat and my 8th mile in practice. I run the 100, 200, 400 in track!

[one_more_hurdler]

4:56...time trial freshmen year (the only time i ever ran it)

i just ran 4:53 last week in our end of the season time trail for xc. still sucks, but not to bad for a sprinter that runs xc for something to do.

[XCboy]

5:01 in our time trail a couple of days ago. I was trying to go under five but I missed it barely. Sucked cause I thought I was way off so I didnt bother to kick. Oh well I'll try again next week.

[shortput]

i hurdle (100m girls) and run a couple sprints in a meet each but my main event is throwing things because of knee problems and back problems i havent run a full mile in a while... probably somewhere just under seven
