I think a decent percentage of males with slow-twitch muscles could break five in the mile.


Disagree and a sub 5 min mile requires as much speed as endurance.

quote:

There were quite a few sub 5 milers on my team who were not even very good athletes or runners.


bullshite. I was the best at the mile in my highschool of about 1,000 and I never got under 5 min. And I'm not sure if anyone in any of the dozen or so track meets I ran in got under 5 minutes until the first regional meet at year end where 3 or 4 ran sub 5 (I ran my best time ever of 5.08 at this meet).

quote:

Breaking five minutes is not impressive in high school if you are running at a competitive level.


I bet it would win 95% of high school track meets during the season and before regionals.

Your school was trash. 5:08 is a good time for a middle schooler or high school girl. Not a post-pubescent boy who invests any time or effort into it.

I haven't ran at all in the last year, smoke a few packs a week, and I am still pretty confident that I could go out and break 5 tomorrow. At least by next week.

so you ran under a 5 minute mile in middle school....as of 2010.

But now, in 2018 you never broke 5 minutes?



This is the problem when you just lie repeatedly. It's easy to see you are a liar.

Liar.

My slow arse was under 5 by sophomore of high school, and I have never been a good miler.

Cool, I guess your high school sucks at distance running. My high school had over a dozen kids break 5 my freshmen year, and I only ran 5:03.

I ran in Georgia and I now coach XC and distance in my spare time, so I can assure you this is not even true unless you are bumblefrick nowhere. You are out of your depth, mate.
