Okay, so I ran a 19:59 for the 2 mile last year, and a 24:23.28 as my fastest 5k. Can I break 17 flat for the 5k this year? This is my senior year in high school and I have been running since 7th grade. Times were 7th grade- 30 min 2 mile 8th grade 28 min 2 mile, 9th- 25 min 2 mile, 10- 20 min 2 mile, 11th- 24:23.28 for the 5k. Can I break 17 for the 5k this year, my coach says no. My dad says no. My mom says no. My friends say no. Screw 'em all, right. I do what i want. I know that if I really tried I could beat grant fisher, but I dont feel like it, you know?
