Just wondering how accurate/good it is. Says I can go from 4 50 to 4 0 in a yr in the mile.

4:50 to 4:00 in ONE year? No way, no how. Some people just won't ever do a 4:00 mile PERIOD no matter how hard they train.
Ment 4 20
No it does not say that. Nothing says that
I actually used SmartCoach to predict what I'd run from a "off the couch" June 2010 5K to September 2010 5K. The result was dead on...although I didn't actually use the SmartCoach training plan.
However, I plugged my January 2011 5K to a May 2011 5K and the result was a little too ambitious.
The SmartCoach is a bit of failure because it doesn't exceed 60mpw for a 5K training plan, nor does it take into account your running history.
