Matt Johnson of On Target Living runs a time 1-mile run. His goal was to run a 4:59, but the weather was a little too cold and the 20m MPH winds didn't help. This was part of a 13-week challenge goal. He did 26 pull-ups, 225 on the bench 12 times, shot 73 in his first round of golf and much more. For more information on how he trains go to www.ontargetliving.com

My best time on the road, was 4-41, on a very accurate carefully measured course for an annual 10k race in South Wales, when i was 34. I wish i had tested myself on the track, as that year, i can remember just beating the hour for a very flat 10miler in Newport. I am sure had i had more experienced pacemakers on the track, that i could have lowered the time by around 10sec or so, but now that i am 54, i can just about comfortably run at 8minute pace, but can still manage close to 7minutes if i go all out.

+FLkickerz It's not good or bad...What really depends is how fast you can run a mile consistently....like how fast can you run 5 miles in a row? that way you can get a better average. Because sure, you can sprint that mile...but i think it matters more how fast you can run it over longer distances

I would say my limit is 5k pace with headphones (5:10 avg). Even at that pace, I'm running too hard to allow myself to get into the songs. I just hear racket in my ears and I can't really enjoy it.

Very good run, you started out too fast...secret to mile, run the first lap as your slowest(third lap may be as slow, depending on how you feel), save that last lap and blast it, should be your fastest: your splits: 1:15, 1:22, 1:29, 1:25...try this: 1:19, 1:18,1:20, 1:14..gives you a 5:11, and then you can work down from there. However, very good mile, excellent!

[@TheManny20020]

Your first lap should be run on pace for goal time second lap is typically a second or two slower. The third lap is where most people slow down but if you wish to obtain your goal time you must continue to push hard to keep up pace and lastly give it all you have on the final lap

[@kaito_7812]

7:55 secs for me not bad in my book

[@blastedpotato]

I ran 2 miles in 12:37. So my one mile should be I guess just under 6 or under 5:50
