Tempo this morning on the treadmill at the gym. 1 easy, 5 at 9:04 (below marathon pace), and 1 easy. It wasn't bad, it was just boring.
I am either going to do an easy 8 mile run or hard 25 mile ride tomorrow morning.

Should most lean males with above average genetics be capable of running 12mph?
Huh? This is somehow both ambiguous and specific.

Ok sorry about being confusing.
20 guys age 30-40 5'7-5'11 150-170lbs. 3 months of moderate training, how many would have the ability to run 12mph for a minute.

Easier running terms would be who can run 5 minute per mile pace for 0.2 miles.
Still no verifiable way of knowing that, but I’d wager less than 50% if you’re just picking people off the street that meet your specs.

We don't do a lot of measuring by the mph around these parts. 
I have no idea how to answer your question. Why do you ask?

I'm going way less than 50% even if you take mid pack runners. 5 min mile would be a full sprint for most runners. go luck holding it for a minute. I can't.

I think I could get a five minute mile or close to it. It would be an absolute maximum effort sprint, though. I'd also probably need a tailwind and a downhill course.

Maybe after the marathon. My fastest mile of all time was 6:58 . . . in high school. I think I might be talking out my arse a little
I feel as if I could get a sub 6-minute mile right now. It would take serious effort though.

I've been in marathon prep for pretty much the last 6 months (Chi Oct, now Hou in Jan). Anytime I see intervals or threshold miles on my plan, I have to recalculate where it should be right now.
Early last year for Half training, my HMP was 7-7:15. I'd be lucky to hit that in threshold miles right now.
I say all of that to mention that soon I want to do an all out mile just to see what it is. Current best effort (per Strava) is 6:38 back in May when I was in 5K shape.

i could do 5:10 miles in high school. never broke the 5 minute barrier. suffice to say those days are long gone
reminds me - i was in annapolis for a week with work a couple years ago. looking for a place to run i saw you could run the naval academy. it was pretty cool except...it was me and a bunch of 18-20 yr old naval cadets. i might as well have been standing still. swear to god one guy lapped me twice

Any run bros in Lafayette wanna join me for a brief and easy jog tomorrow morning? I will be there for work. I could probably get a run in at 6. Maybe 5-6 miles at an easy, conversational pace (9:54 or so).
