If you are that stupid to even consider it you don't deserve to get into grad school. Not even if you are a chick with a 15:03 best.
During the fun, conversation part of the interview I might slip in that I run to see if I get asked how fast lol
maybe you should just write 'competitive NCAA track & field athlete'. if they care or know anything about running, they'll ask you how fast you are
N-O
I never included PRs but I did include one line about Big Ten 3rd place team finish. Nobody ever noticed it or asked about it. Who knows if it helped or hurt?
just put running under your interests. if the person interviewing you is a runner, he may strike up a conversation.
but think about it, most people will have noooooo idea what any of your times mean.
No, I just include my big IQ.
That would be analagous to putting your your high score in Tetris on your resume. 98% of readers would find your time meaningless. 100% of readers would think that you are a clueless geek for including it on a resume.
i dont put my prs. i do have that ive run 4 marathons though. i put it so in an interview they probably will ask about it and then i can blabber about determination, commitment, motivation. all that crap
"Im" and "have ran"
Graduate school -- really?

I put that i've run 36 8Ks.
why do you keep track of how many 8ks youve run? seems odd
no but you should include your penis size. every job i have ever gotten has depended on it.
What if you threw your mile time on there? Everyone can relate to the mile. Even if your PR is 4:09 people will see 4:0x and think 4 minute mile this guy is amazing. I agree tho, people don't know anything about a good 5k time. Hell, I don't even know what a good 5k time is anymore
Runners dont care what it is, let alone non-runners.
not only should you include it but you should put it on the line next to your name. In fact just submit a list of race results and put your academic qualifications on page 2.
I can't beleive you are a letsrun poster and you are asking that question. If you ran a 15:03 you should be telling them you ran 14:30!.............Oh wait, I'm sorry now I get it. You actually ran a 16:50 and you are just saying 15:03. Then that's all right, carry on.

Only include it if you have won any MAJOR HONORS at T&F BTW Being 7th man on you HS JV is not an honor.
Wear your bunhuggers to the interview.
