Whats a good time for a 14 year old 5K?

Question

I just got 21 min on my 5K. Is that good for a 14 year old. And its out of season and im outta shape!

Answer 1

Yes. 21 minutes sort of marks the beginning for good 5K times.

Your ability to run under 7 minutes per mile without any specific speed training tells me you are probably capable of running under 20 minutes with proper training.

Enjoy your summer and try some long comfortable runs as a base for the faster running to come.

Answer 2

that's amazing! if you train by the time cross country season comes around you'll be even better.

Good luck!

Answer 3

yeah that is  a good time!
