What's a good mile time?

    Ya know what I think? Any pace that takes you all the way through a mile is a good pace. A 14 minute mile isn't going to win you any races, but it's a fine start for a beginner. A "good" time is going to be different for everyone, based on experience and ability.

    I run long distances, so to conserve energy and keep my stamina for the long haul, I run slower than I would if I was just running a mile. I've never been fast, but I can run for a long time. Anything under 10 minutes is good enough for me. I'm just chillin' and having a good time out there on the trail.

    ETA: Who resurrected this ancient post? It's from 2009! :laugh:
