Can you run/jog a mile without stopping?
A mile is a little less than two kilometers if you guys use metric.

But yeah, I can almost do it. I'm out of shape and all (213lb, 5ft 11in), and I can run about .8 of a mile. I've improved dramatically from not being able to jog a half a mile. I'm going for a mile and a half by the end of 2011

I recommend you guys go try it out. Go on google maps or something, and try and map out a mile somewhere, on some road. See how you do. I can achieve one mile in about 9 minutes, too. I'm working on improving that aswell.

How in shape are you guys?

Get out of the dark, and go run.
Thanks.
I'm 6' maybe a bit over by now, and weigh 180lb. I can only run about half a mile . Running is a lot more fun to me though, now that I have some vibram five fingers.
During cross country season I run upwards of 50 miles a week. Currently I'm doing tapered runs to increase my current track pr's but even still I am looking at about 30-40 minute runs.

Next month I will begin training for a marathon I will be running over the summer. (26miles if you didn't know)

I'd wish you good luck, but according to what you just said you clearly don't need it. Aim for sub 3 hours!


I used to be able to run a route that was approximately 2.7 miles in 14:32. That was in the peak of my training, before I discovered alcohol and tobacco. Now I would probably be running a 5:30-6 minute mile.

I can jog 6km without stopping, in about 30 mins. Mind you, I play a lot of sport and do a fair bit of other exercise.
I like my steak cooked Bleu.

I'm not sure you can jog 6km without stopping in only 30 minutes.

I get tired easy, and I haven't done much cardio in a while, so at the most I can jog 1 km without stopping.
