I'm currently a high school senior (boy) who has only been running for the past two years. I want to run in college but am not sure if I have what it takes. Here are my PRs so far:
800- 2:10
1600- 4:13
5k- 24:17 (It was windy)
What kind of scholarships can this get me? I'm fine if it's not D1

this makes no sense unless you have only run one 800 in your life and it was years ago.
the 413 mile is worth about a 154 in 800
so either you are really confused or there is a whole lot more to your story
are you sure you really ran a 413 mile, or was it a 1500? (even that is wroth a 204 or so)

No, I just lack a lot of leg speed and I've only raced the 800 once. Pretty sure it was a full 1600
Untrue. I ran 4:13/9:11/15:25 and got no replies from 90% of the schools I contacted last year. I ran 4:11 this past spring and found a mid major who allowed me to walk on this year.

You're either the most unlucky kid or not academically worthy, because the times you shared qualify you as a recruit for over 240 D1 programs per Runcruit. Seriously, if you're not just blowing smoke, you should look into the transfer portal, because there's money out there you're sleeping on.

You looked in the wrong place. Every college but one will take a 4:20 guy in my state, and that one college would probably, and has taken 4:13. That college is also one of the favorites for NCAAs.

Yea 90% of school may not have replied but the schools he emailed may have been NAU, Stanford, Oregon, Arkansas, BYU and a couple other top teams… but I could throw a dart at a map and 90% of the closest colleges to the dart would let him run and many would give him money.
You guys just don't believe what is really happening. I coach high school and have had multiple kids over the past few years receive no response from most programs. It is not nearly as easy as you think. Even programs that have some slower people mey have no openings or if they do, the coaches have a guy that they have been recruiting for the past 2 years. I have had many 4:20 guys have to go D3 because they couldn't find a D1 spot. I have had guys run 4:15 junior year and receive no power 5 interest. None. Many coaches are lazy. The ones who are good are not looking for guys who are not elite.

There's a simple explanation. He probably goes to high school at Lake County or Aspen. He ran the 800 in Leadville. He ran the 5k on top of Mt Elbert (it's always windy there).
