Answer 1

I hate to break it to ya but thers no way your going to clip off a minute and 20 sec off your time in less than two weeks.

Answer 2

yea, thats pretty much impossible unless you train like a freak but even then i would doubt it, it took me like 4 months to do that

Answer 3

do longer runs along with your miles, just don't think about your speed, just go, go,go! run as fast as you can for as long as you can! you'll get it!

Answer 4

RUN RUN RUN!

Answer 5

your going to have to do alot of base training to get yourself in shape and when the mile comes your going to have to stay focused and relax and if you start to feel like c**p just get faster you would be suprised by how much that would help you

Answer 6
