Is this good time for running a.?

Question

is 5.8 good running time for a half mile?

Answer 1

Ehhh no.  I was out of shape and i ran the whole mile in 8 minutes.  The half mile should be less than half too because you dont get so tired.

Answer 2

Not even close. I ran the WHOLE MILE 6.30. 5.8 that's bad.

Answer 3

It all depends on your skill level. If you are out of shape then that is pretty good but if you are on the track/xc team then that is really bad

Answer 4

Okay im going to be completely honest. It's not a good time. However if you keep training hard i guarantee that you can get it to around 3 minutes at least.  

Answer 5

It depends if you were trying to run a mile, or a long distance. But for just running 1 mile, that's not good. Why would anyone need a break from running a mile or half a mile?? 97 isn't that hot.

Answer 6

that is 2min.34sec for 400m (1 lap) x 4 = 10.16 mile

If your female in middle school you should be abel to run 7-8 min (3.30 to 4.00 half mile) easy if not faster.  

a high school freshman , or sophomore 7min to 6.30 (3.30 to 3.15 half mile)

a high school junior or senior 6.30mile (3.15 for half mile) or faster for the   1 mile run.

These are time that would be acceptable to a PE teacher for female students not in cross country or running distance races for the track team.

  

Answer 7

well not really depending on how you look at it b/c so your not into sports than that's understandable if your a sprinter than that also is understandable b/c sprinters don't do as good on longer runs as they would with 100m and so on but if your a distance runner no but there is always room for improvement :)

Answer 8

minutes?!?!? a half mile should take you between 2:30 minutes and 3 minutes.

Answer 9

Honestly, that is a 10:16 mile which is not that good. If you want to be fast, consider running every day. I guarantee that if you run every day for at least 6 months and put effort into it, you will easily go sub 4 minutes for a half a mile.
