Average Mile jog time for an 19 year old male?

Question

Just timed my 1.2 mile jog and i was 7:13 is that good? whats the average time for Adult/teenage males

Answer 1

I'm a 19 year old male and the last time I timed myself, I ran 3.5 kilometers or 2.17 miles in 13:40 or around 6:18 or so per mile/ 3:55 per kilometer.

Answer 2

When I was on the track team my times were always between 5:30-6:30 for 1 mile. That was about when I was 16 so, I guess yours is still good.

Answer 3

I would say at that time you were running more then jogging, I would say the average would depend on the age and health of a person.  But i would say that as a  mid packer in races (I finish  in the middle most races)  The pace I have is usually 8:30 - 8:40 a mile.

Answer 4

That is quite fast for a "jog", more like a run.

That is just over a 6-minute mile, right? That's pretty good, though it won't win a big race. Do you have some sort of running goal in mind, or is this just for fun and exercise?
