Yeah 18 here for my first official mile race as I did 1600 in high school.
Never
I don't think there's a conversion table for this, but when I was 12 I ran a Mile in 5:06- in the tiled halls of my Middle School, 6.75 laps in a rectangular shaped hallway.
I'm sure that's sub 5 on a real track.
I then broke my shoulder that night.
In 9th grade I ran 4:51 and never ran the mile in competition again- I was a 50.x 400 guy and 2:00 800 guy.
You are special kind of stupid aren’t you??
13. I was young 9th grader.
Had never run sub five, but coming off my first cross country season I ran 4:43 at my first high school track meet.
I didn't run track until I was a senior in high school but had run XC in the Fall. Prior to that I was a soccer player. Well I still am as I play in adult soccer leagues.
We ran the full mile, two mile, and 880 on cinder tracks back then. My very first mile was 4:37 at the age of 17.
15 years old.
My HS 1600 meter progression was 5:10, 4:55, 4:35, 4:17.
34
15yrs old....47yrs ago!
17 4:59.4 10 days later ran two miles in 10:05, splits were 5:04-5:01.
My sophomore year in HS I went 5:13, 5:00, 5:01, 5:00, 4:50
Never have. Probably never will.
I have ran the female equivalent at age 21 though.
When I was 23, in the Army Basic training . (1971) Ran a mile in combat boots on a gravel track. 5:50 Does that count?

8th grade isn’t an age.
Only once. 4:59. When I was 37.
I didn't start running until I was 31.
16 - junior year of HS early in the season (didn't run track as a sophomore)

Did you ask this question just so you can brag on yourself when you were in 8th grade? Uncle Rico?
