| Veteran 146 Texas | Subject: RE: Personal running speed records OK, good to know I'm not the only one remembering the good ol' track days. Brace-face knobby-kneed 6:14 mile in 1993 was one of my PRs I'm still working on beating - am planning to hit the track sometime this fall and try it out, at least to break 7 for the first time in a decade.. |

Mile: 5:00 (give or take a few seconds) 5K (XC): 17:30 (on a new pair of Nike, lime green, XC green spikes!. I think my peeps coined the phrase "gotta be the shoes" well before Spike Lee and MJ... Now more contemporary (and 40-50 more lbs. than HS)... Marathon: 4:20 (first and only) Half: 1:59 and change I echo several posts ago about regaining the HS speed. Discussed that very same topic today during a group ride.... |

Runner | Subject: RE: Personal running speed records Ran track and XC in HS. Fastest time for XC was around a 16:30 or so. I qualified for the Footlocker Regionals, so whatever that was at the time (it was mid to low 16's). I hated track. My fastest 1600 was around 5:15-20 or so, and my fastest 3200 was around a 10:30. I much preferred XC. More recently, I have a 19:55 5k, 33:09 5mi, 1:08:45 10mi, and a 3:22:04 marathon. |

And i'd have to say that i don't want to, cause that speed really hurts. I'd rather run a little slower and enjoy myself lol!! |

Extreme Veteran 387 Pennsylvania | Subject: RE: Personal running speed records Currently admist my cross country season (junior in HS) and my best time is a 25ish. I am actually a middle distance guy for track and did cross country to help with my tri training. In 9th grade I ran my fasest 400 in 52.0, but since then the coaches have converted me to an 800 runner which is not a fun race. My best time came last year 2:03 (district qualifying!). Some of you guys have really impressive times! m1sh4p - 2007-10-08 11:34 AM Mile - 4:18 highschool senior year 2Mile - 9:31 highschool senior year state 5k - 15:18 highschool senior year 8k - 25:42 Freshmen year in college then quit then I stopped running for three years because I got sick of it and wanted to start up aagin but not only running hence I started triathlons Those mile and 2 mile times are incredible.

Some of you guys have really impressive times! Your 400/800 times are damn good, yourself...esp. the 400 time as a freshman, but the 2:03 half as a soph as well...wow! (Gets me all nostalgic to see someone going down the same path I was on at your age...800 and sometimes 400 specialist slogging through XC in the fall to stay in shape for track...) |

Extreme Veteran 387 Pennsylvania | Subject: RE: Personal running speed records Remember though we are talking about my extreme bests here. I ran the 52.0 and 2:03 at the peak of my season (usually the end). I'm way too inconsistent. |
