What's the fastest mile ever run? , Boston Marathon qualifier. In 1983 Mike Boit of Kenya ran a mile in 3:28.36. As far as I know, no one has ever covered the distance faster. This was on a downhill road course so it isn't recognized by IAAF but it's still the fastest mile ever run by a human. The world record in the mile run is the best mark set by a male or female runner in the middle-distance track and field event. The IAAF is the official body which oversees the records.

- The longer distances would see them get slower and slower. Also, I think the center mids and center backs who don't do as much running would be a little worse. I was always a soccer player until my junior year in high school, and with no xc/track experience ran a 2:02 800m my first time out and a 52s 400m the same day.

- Posted over 4 years ago in reply to Mouthy posh tart. I'm 56 and was not exactly at the peak of fitness when I started running in about April last year. I did a 10k in July and got a time of 1hr 12 mins. If I could do that in 4 months you should do better that that in 6.I put down 90mins to 2hrs on the form. If you put a fast time, you just end up further towards the starting line with the proper runners, then get left behind immediately.'m 56 and was not exactly at the peak of fitness when I started running in about April last year.

Training for 5,000m The evolution of training regimes has been slow and they are not expected to change dramatically for the next fifty years. However, what is changing is the age for peak performance. The age when an athlete was expected to run a sub 4 minute mile for the first time in 1964 was 24 years.It’s now 21 years.Thirty years ago it was virtually impossible for a 20 year-old to be ranked in the first three of the all-time best 5km performances, this is not so today.f you want to run 15 mins for 5km, you have to know that’s 72 secs / 400m and get used to it for spells lasting 3-5 minutes’ duration with short rest. Also, you will realise that a good 3km time aids the realisation of a good 5km. For example. Liz McColgan ran 8:34.80 for 3km in 1989, that’s 69 secs / 400m.
