To anyone who ran a mile, state your time here.
Time could come from a split in any distance race that was held in September to December of 2016.
I like to know your fastest mile for September, October, November and December. How did you feel afterward.... Did you win or lost the race feeling devastated.
5:24 split for first mile of 5k in October, felt okay for the rest of the race, averaged 5:40/mi. There was some downhill on that mile.
5:07 mile (on track) for November. Felt close to max output.
Do indoor miles count? If so, 4:03.27
September - 5:43 - twice (i) 3 x 1 mile workout with 1 min rest and (ii) 4 mile tempo with wind at back
October - 5:22 - mile 1 of local road 5k
November - 5:19 - mile 1 of 5 mile turkey trot (held on for dear life after!)
December - 6:00 - natural progression run w/o looking at watch. No workouts this month
4:18 on September 11th road mile. I think I was 16th in a field of several professional runners.
5:54. Took everything I had in me to do it. I know this is bottom 99% of LR but some of us just aren't as gifted you people.
6:45
4:49 in the 4th of 4xmile workout in October. Felt harder than I would have liked. Unfortunately injured soon after.

I wish I could run your time. Are you a sub 4 miler? Are you professional athlete or a collegian runner?

What were the splits for the first three mile of the 4 x mile work out. What a awesome workout. I hope you get well again so you can continue to improve.
Did you feel like your were on cloud 9? I never even got close to that kind of shape for a workout. The closest I ran was 5:36 for a ladder work out.
My coach had me run a 3 mile warm up in 7 minute pace. Then he would join in on the track workout. We start first mile in 5:36, 800 in 2:25, 400 in 65, 300 in 45.

Did you feel like you could had gone faster after finishing the race. Are you training for anything particular or was this just a race to see what shape you're in.
Does 4:18 feel faster on the road or on the track?
Thank you for your participation.
September: 4:49 in the second half of a 3200 time trial (split 4:47 for last 1600) - was quite pleased with this run.
October: 4:53 for first mile of a road 5k, slightly downhill. Ended up winning, with little competition in the last two miles - overall time slower than I'd have liked, but not bad.
November: 5:10? I averaged about 5:23 pace for a couple different tempo runs, so the downhill portions were probably faster than the average. Also ran some repeats up to 800 meters at well under 5:00 pace.
December: 4:19 - indoor mile, 4th place. Slower than I had been aiming for a month before the race, but much faster than I had thought was likely a couple weeks out (got sick in November).

So first you made this thread to brag about your time. Then you made a post kissing your own ass.
Lol.
19 minutes, but it was in a down hill marathon, so I win.
Thank you everyone for posting their 2016 mile time. I only ran a 6:14 on the track about three weeks ago. Aside from that, everybody that posted are blazing fast. I could only dream of running under 5 minutes.
What I like the most about your responses are the race details pertaining to your individuals races.
I hope everyone runs well in 2017. Earning a personal best is such a terrific feeling. I admire you all for your hard work and dedication to the sport.
Happy Holidays everyone..............
5:03 back in early September
4:33 in an aerobic interval workout
3 miles at 5:15 pace
2 miles at 4:55 pace
1 mile in 4:33
Is this in light of the 3:58 (and first sub 4) in December? Not being a downer, but the guy red shirted in XC and had time to get into great mile shape. Nevertheless, sub 4 is impressive itself, but we shouldn't be hyped about it being in December. It's not like it was 2 or 3 weeks after training for a 10k for several months.
5:38 next to last mile in a couple different progression runs. No road races. Felt good to get up to speed since I'm a trail runner and it's hard to run fast on trails and I don't run many workouts nor road races. It always makes me think about getting in a road 5K to see where I'm at speed-wise for that kind of distance.
