Is 7:40 for 5 miles good for a freshman?

Question

i just wanted to know on my 5 mile run if running 7:40 each mile a good time for a freshman. what time you think i should be at by the end of the year for 5 miles.like 7:20?

Answer 1

i ran 5:45 on my freshman mile (per mile) run u need to practice a little more like 36 min

Answer 2

thats pretty solid

Answer 3

yea its good

Answer 4

Yeah that's a pretty good time for a high school freshman.

by the end of the year you should be at about 6:00  or a tad more saying your keep a consistent running ting going on.

Answer 5

5 miles would take me 7 days haha... nice job!

Answer 6

you should be able to run a full five miles in under one minute you lazy sack

Answer 7

its good for a freshmen but not one that wants to be a champion runner

Answer 8

Yes.

Like seven mins?

its good.

Answer 9

yes

Answer 10

lol for a second I was gonna say man thats phyiscal impossible to run 5 miles in just 7:40. Im not gonna say its the best time but theirs room for improvement. My friend did track and his mile time was 8:30 minutes. By the end of the year he got it all the way down to 5:45 minutes which is a huge improvement. Just keep practicing.

Answer 11

yea thats good. my mom runs for an hour and a half every morning for 10 miles, thats good for a freshman.  

Answer 12

Thats 38minuntes 20 for the five miles right?

I do not know what type or amount of training you will do now till the end of the year, or what you have at presently been doing.  But with good advice and a mix of easy to longer runs and some 300 and 1000metre reps  I could imagine you getting down to 7 minute 10sec mile average (35min 50sec), 5mile by the end of the year.  But only action and sticking to a training plan will get you there, not hope alone.

Answer 13

Holy c**p yes! Then again I dont run much. I have a hard time doing one in 10 minute.

Answer 14

yes it's decent i don't know what i ran for 5 miles last year when i was a freshman, but i averaged 5:50 a mile for a 5k(3.1 miles) so i imagine i was about the same for 5 miles... i'd say 7:10 or so would be a fair goal.

Answer 15

yeah....its kinda real good!!!  the army alots you effin  12 min 2mile!! so a 7 min 5 is kinda UN HEARD of!

OH LMAO i thought you were saying you were running a 7min 5 mile!!! LMAO.....7 for one mile is okay!!

Answer 16

h**l yes, im a freshman and i cant do anything under 10 min.
