rehmwa 2 #26 November 3, 2006 How can someone run a mile without getting distracted part way in? oh, look,..... ...

matt1215 0 #28 November 3, 2006 My best time ever was my PT eval in basic, 2 miles in 16:30. I ran a 13:20 for my 1.5 mile PT eval a couple months ago. I can run a mile in 8:15, probably better, but I typically run my miles in about 9:30. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrFreefall383 0 #39 November 6, 2006 I usually run distance, but if I know I'm only running a mile, I could probably end up well below the 7 minute mark."If at first you don't succeed... well, so much for skydiving." - aviation cliche Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darwin143 0 #40 November 6, 2006 QuoteI'm a slow runner. I'm very happy with a 10 or even a 12 minute mile. Having had a bunch of broken ankles, I'm just happy that I can still run (it's painful, but I can do it). wish i had such an excuse for being a slow runner :-) I usually come in around 10-11 minutes...never been a good runner I'd rather swim :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skylord 1 #45 November 6, 2006 Wow. Memory lane here for me. I ran competitively in high school and two years in college. Mile: 4:46 (1976) 2 Mile: 10:09 (1976) Half Marathon: 1:21:00 (1979) I got way out of shape, and then got back in shape. California International Marathon: 3:11:53 (Dec. 1993) Boston Marathon: 3:21:27 (1994) Marine Corps Marathon: 3:17:XX (1995) California International Marathon: 3:10:23 (Dec. 1995) Boston Marathon: 3:31:XX (April 1996) Absolutely the time of my life, and I am working on getting back to something decent at 48 years old. Right now? I could do a mile in about 5 and a half minutes. This assumes an ambulance is on site and immediately picks me up at the 1/4 mile mark in full cardiac arrest.

NlghtJumper 0 #46 November 6, 2006 The best I have ever done on a PT test is a 12:48 2-mile. Which would leave me at about a 6:24 1 mile. Sadly, lately I have been barely passing with a 15:48 (7:54 1 mile). Wow, I really need to get back in shape!

matthewcline 0 #48 November 7, 2006 38 years old, over 20 years of the Army and still doing 2 miles in the mid 14's (1 mile just over 7 minutes). I used to be faster when the jump numbers where lower (not skydives but the near 200 round jumps).An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
