allstate15 Member	posted May-12-2005 04:34 PM Thats pretty good. When I was a 6th grader my time was around yours. Right now im at 4:49 and a sophmore in highschool. Keep it up and by the time your my age you might be running 4:30 for the mile IP: Logged

funnerrunner1600 Cool Runner	posted May-13-2005 03:59 PM Sounds like a great mile time for a 5th grader. Keep it up! IP: Logged
Professor Cool Runner	posted May-14-2005 07:45 PM when i was in 5th grade my mile time was...let's see...10 something? now im in 11th grade and its about 5:30. especially if you don't train that much, that's a really good time for someone your age. ------------------ Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall. - Confucius IP: Logged

ljwoodw Cool Runner	posted May-17-2005 01:10 AM I'd venture to say it doesn't really matter what your mile time is in 5th grade...you will grow and change so much. I dropped two minutes between 5th and 6th grade on zero training. That's just the way our bodies are. ------------------ My Profile IP: Logged
Trackster500 Member	posted May-19-2005 06:53 AM My sister is in 5th grade and runs around the low side of a 8 minute mile. She has one of the top mile times of the county! So if you have a 7 minute mile, you're doing really well for 5th grade. IP: Logged
mep5555 Cool Runner	posted May-19-2005 06:51 PM My 4th grade daughter's fastest mile is 7:20 (but probably could be a few seconds faster). No other 9-year old Oklahoma female ran a faster 5K than her last year (24:21), and no 10-year old OK female has run faster than her 24:27 so far this year. There are several girls 1-2 years older than her who can beat her though. There is one other 10-year old from down in the southern part of the state (in a town with lots of GREAT young female runners (12-13) who may eventually run a faster 5K than my daughter this year...she's already beaten her at the 3K distance late last year.

funnerrunner1600 Cool Runner	posted May-20-2005 07:20 PM I don't remember my fifth grade mile time, but my 6th grade PR in gym class was 10:49, then 7th grade gym class was 7:58, with absolutely no training. Now my mile PR is 6:31 but I think it could be better if I hadn't been injured for the past year. IP: Logged
RunnerGurlie Member	posted May-21-2005 07:13 AM hey thats really good my sister in 4th grade can run that too, im in 8th grade and i run about a 6:02 minute mile, i want to know if thats good for a girl? IP: Logged
XCRunner11 Cool Runner	posted May-24-2005 06:55 PM in 6th grade i ran a 7:20, right around where you are. Now I'm a sophomore (female) training for the first time and my PR's a 6:10. Your time sounds good, if you train you can definitly go far with it. IP: Logged
CLcoolrun Cool Runner	posted May-30-2005 06:34 PM I ran 8 somethin. But I was short, small, and goofed around for the whole mile. I had a friend who ran somewhere around 6 minutes. 6:10 or less. But he was tall, fast, and goofed around the whole time as well. That was............dude that was 7 years ago!!!!!!!!!!! I just graduated from high school and I'm still goofing around. CL my I'm old, 7 years!! IP: Logged
captainwildcat Cool Runner	posted May-31-2005 12:27 AM I'm coaching a couple of boys one (5th grade one 6th grade) who just ran 5:32 1500m this weekend - translates to a mile in 5:54. and I have a 6th grade girl who ran a 5:54 1500 (6:21 mile) and a 4th grade girl who ran a 6:12 1500m (6:40 mile) IP: Logged
miler1991 Member	posted Jun-11-2005 08:28 PM good time for a 5th grader especially if it was run by a girl IP: Logged
miler1991 Member	posted Jun-11-2005 08:32 PM runnergurlie, yes that is a very good time for an 8th grade girl it would beat the best time a girl in my meets had (6:28) by 26 seconds. IP: Logged
supercaulking Member	posted Jun-13-2005 04:51 PM I am in 6th grade and I did a 4:01 mile. All you have to do is to train hard every day, slowly increase your milage. IP: Logged
captainwildcat Cool Runner	posted Jun-14-2005 12:02 AM supercaulking there is no way you ran a 4:01 mile as a 6th grader, either you are a liar or it was a typo. IP: Logged
supercaulking Member	posted Jun-14-2005 06:20 PM captainwildcat --- I would really like to screw your little ass You are so perceptive. IP: Logged
captainwildcat Cool Runner	posted Jun-15-2005 12:04 AM super - you didn't have to get nasty, I was just trying to surmise if you were a liar or simply made a mistake, since you didn't post what you actually did in your response I can only assume you are a nasty little liar IP: Logged

kfmantis Member	posted Jun-17-2005 08:55 AM ljwood made a good point, when your in fifth grade, it is hard to gauge your skills, because you could still grow alot, and change your style. IP: Logged
ivo Cool Runner	posted Jun-17-2005 09:02 AM my 2nd grade daughter recently ran 7:45 - i did think this is kinda fast for a 2nd grader, but there was another girl with 7:48 or so from her class. I heard there was a boy in 5th or 8th grade (not sure) who ran 5:47 IP: Logged
mep5555 Cool Runner	posted Jun-17-2005 02:27 PM An 8-year old boy from my daughter's running club ran a 5:27 1500 meters last weekend at the state AAU meet. An 8-year old girl from her club also ran a 5:45 1500 meters at the same meet. They both would have finished very high in age groups much older than them. IP: Logged
