Your fastest 1-mile run

[GloomySVT]

SVTP is filled with self-proclaimed bodybuilders. A little cardio goes a long way in maintaining good health, so lets hear it.

Regular street running, treadmill, elliptical. What was your fastest 1-mile run? :beer:

 

[mrmustangman357]

fastest 1 mile for myself 6:30. But I don't do shorter 1 mile runs with asthma

 

[Instigator99]

**** a 1-mile, how about a 2-mile.

That being said, I'm slow sitting @ a best of 13:30.

I think the world record is like 3:40 something .

I'm right with you. 8:15 is my fastest thus far. :beer:

Im a big guy (6'7 285) but back in high school 7 years ago the fastest i ever ran was 7:45. Guys at our school no matter size had to run it in 8:00 or better for a passing grade.

There isn't no way in hell i can do that now, i still weigh about the same but all the muscle i had from weightlifting and football conditioning turned into jello plus a knee surgery later.

The knee issue would certainly hold you back . Still, at that ratio of yours, it's pretty damn awesome, even if you can't do it again. You did make it there. :beer:

In highschool I could do it in 5:35. Fast forward 4 years with a pack or more a day for the last 2 years I'd say way longer lolz

Edit: in highschool I was 5'10 135-145lbs soaking wet lolz. Now im 22 5'10 150 lbs lolz, still a skinny bastard. My favorite pair of jeans that I have now I got when I was 15 and in the 9th grade hahaha. I have so many pairs of Levi jeans, its retarded. Every Christmas my mom buys me 2-3 pairs and that is my present from her. And all the pairs from the previous 5-7 years still fit so they just pile up. I eventually go to a pair that I got a few years back and work in them. Shirts are the same way. I wear a uniform at work so for working 12 hours a day 5-6 days a week for the last 4 years ive been wearing the same thing. I havent been clothes shopping in over 2 years.

[tj04cobra]

5:03

Damn :beer:

Are you a skinny guy?

 

[massmustang02]

5:30 but that was in March of 09 training pretty much every day. I haven't ran consistently since last October and would probably by around 8 now.

 

[white02]

Sub six minute, but that was last year. I bet I could get 5:30 if I ran it now.

 

[cobra_matt]

6:15

 

[mckpat03]

Sub 6 when I was in my prime playing soccer all year round. Now I'd be lucky to do better than 8's.

FWIW, I'm 6'0" and my soccer weight was 165.

 

[usmcrebel]

1.5 mile before injury was around 6:30
3 mile was 20:41
6'2" 190 then

after it take me about 1 min as i am riding in the van

 

[iwhine03]

6:10 senior year (2007) at 6 3 190. im only posting bc i started running awhile back and i ran it in 6:30 at 6 3 230! i honestly think running is something ur born into i guess. i had a buddy who was my size and could run it in 5:20s all day in hs.
