eot cause the OP said "average"
I'm sub 5 plenty of times, none very recent, though I could probably do it again if I didn't hate the event.

6 minutes when I was 20. I am 36 now and run ultramarathons. I regularly run training runs of 7+ miles at around 7:20 pace, so I don’t know what that would translate to today. I haven’t attempted a flat out timed mile in over a decade.
5:34 in 2015 when I was 32. Not raced a mile since then but doubt I could have gone faster at any point after that. Reckon I could have got under 5:30 that year if I'd been aiming for a fast mile.
As of right now the average time is sitting at 4:38.
also the mile is no fun. It is no fair to compare mile times because only self-loathing idiots ever push themselves to the limit over that distance.
It can seem like a good idea ahead of time, but after one lap you realize you don't actually want to do another three laps. So to continue means you are weak-willed.
4:49, but it was the Presidential Downhill Mile (Clemson SC, 1987).

Just as I suspected. Mainly people who did not run D1 but now argue all day long about scholarships.

Ok, Bad Wigins.
Since you hate the Mile just list your Thon PR!
