Question

I run a 5:20 in the mile and i am an eighth grade boy i also run a 11:50 in the two mile is that good?

Answer 1

Yes thats very good. I am also in eight grade and ran my mile in 5:30. Just keep practicing and you could be great. Try cross country in the fall.

Answer 2

Yes that is good.  I ran in the low 6's for the mile in 8th grade and have taken off about a minute since then as i started doing training in high school track.  If you aren't training alot yet, you could still take off alot of time and be a very good runner

Answer 3

Yes! that's very good for an 8th grader! you should do cross-country next year at your high school. you could possibly be on varsity for cross-country with those times.
