Answer 3

d**n man that's really fast for a 16 year old kid.. u gotta keep up the good work.. u definitely beat my mile time but i was more a long distance runner.. all i can say is endurance speed training is important by running a lot of miles at a fast pace.. also sprint training doing 300m then joggin 100m then doing 300m all at 5-6 minute mile pace and see how many u can do.. also sprinting up hills builds leg strength and definitely increases the amount of time u can keep up your speed.. umm nutrition is important ... rest.. d**n 4:37 to 4:00 is a stretch for now but maybe after a few months u could get there.. definitely if u keep training by the time u r 18-19 u will improve by a lot.. possibly under 4 mins.. pushups and situps also help a lot.. in all sprinting+long runs r crucial.. change it up.. see what fits u.. train with your school's team, etc..
