Cross country time any good?

Question

How does my 5k (3.1 mile) times compare to others? I ran it in 18:17 today. I am a freshman and it was my first race in high school. Is it any good?

Answer 1

that is pretty good for your first time. im in cross country my first year too and im slower. my time in 3 miles was 21 minutes XD! i'll get better lol. keep it up though!  

Answer 2

yeah for a freshman and for a first race that's really good.. 17s almost gaurantees u for varsity so keep up the good work.. u r gonna be really fast by the time u r senior

Answer 3

yea thats great definity above average...probably not fast enough to make varsity but by the end of the season you might be...just keep working hard and you will be great

Answer 4

Have you ran other then this year? Because that time is AWESOME! Very, very good job! You are going to be really good as a senior and I know that for a fact because my time is a lot slower (25 min for a 5K :/ ) but I slacked off a lot at almost all practices and the coach still said I have a lot of potential and by the time I am a senior I will be really really good. Yes he said two reallys XD. I'm now going to be a sohpomore and plan on giving it my all during practice and hopefully I will get good this year even. I am currently searching how to get better many articles out there. Well the race on the olympics is about to start! so this is all, goodluck this season!!`

Answer 5

For being a freshman and it being your first race that is pretty good.  Keep it up.  

Answer 6

That's great! Keep up the good work! I'm sure your coach was proud!
