7:15...4th grade
9:47 for 1 mile, Swope Middle school, Reno Nevada, around September/October 1981.
10:40ish, couldn't even run the whole thing -- went around the block my school was on a bunch of times, my (gym teacher)/(soon to be xc coach) had measured it, i think. Ran the whole thing without walking in 8:04 after trying once a week for many weeks. Ran 6:30ish going around the same block, just messing around, in gym with the same teacher a couple years later.
4:48
Still my PB 24 years on. Not going to beat it now. :-(
5:02.5 at summer track meet @ Niles West HS between freshman and sophomore year.
Somewhere north of 7 minutes (7:20?), 7th grade PE mile.
4:52 soph highschool first race ever at any distance
in 1958: temporary 220 yard dirt oval laid out on junior high school playground.... 9th grade. I "won" my 1/2 of gym class's race in 6 flat. Coach let me run 2 days later with the other half of the class and I won again, improving to 5:48. That was the end of my miling career.
In 4th and 5th grades, for a month or two, the gym teacher would have running be the focus for class. Every day, he'd have us run as many laps as we could for the 20-25 minutes, and I remember some of us getting to about 2 2/3 miles. Each lap around the school grounds was 1/3 mile. At the end of the running period, he'd put on a 4th grader race and one for the 5th graders too.
We had a very competitive class of about 50 kids, and the year before, we even had to have the gym teacher come to talk to us in Mrs. Hall's 3rd grade class about sportsmanship and competing in a fun way. Kids were always coming in from recess injured. I even got chronic laryngitis from yelling at other kids so much. Sorry for the tangent. My point is, every day we ran in gym, we basically raced.
Anyway, on the day of the race, it was probably between me and two other kids for the win. I ended up with a 6:00, and let Herbie Devine tie me at the line because I let up. We were both 1 second behind Stevie Newcomb.
Ahh, the good ole' days.
4:48 first ever race on a track - freshman year in high school. 1996.
4:02. Never did a mile, until i could run 3:42 for 1500 and thought i'd have a crack at 4mins, was windy
I don't remember when the first time I ran a timed mile was, but the first time I can remember was 6:01 in 8th grade in PE.
First actual race was in 9th grade, And I think it was 5:25.
Track meet in High School, Freshman year: 6:38. Oh yeah, i sucked. Ran 5:15 by the end of the season.
