So yesterday I ran a PR mile of 5:35, and I was wondering if I have a possible future in long-distance running. I ran 6 miles in training in about 41 minutes and I'm still improving, could I get to a 17-18 minute 5k by fall? What would that take in training terms, like milage per week? What would other high school freshman be running?
