Yeah, a 5:52 is a very good time for someone who doesn't train as a mile runner. My best time in the mile is 5:46. You are obviously in very good shape. I'm only a freshman in High School but I was one of the only ones in middle school to break 6 in the mile if that means anything to you. That's a really good time and you might want to consider outdoor track. Soccer players have great endurance. Are best runner this year used to dod soccer. Good luck this soccer season.

Yah a 5:52 is really good for someone who never trains for miles. I reccomend running track in the spring. The way they train you will bring you down to at least a 5:30 mile. My mile time is 5:10 and i gained that during track season.

i am a 12 year old soccer player and i did it in 5:50. i know a sixth grader that can do it in 5:45. If you get beaten by a sixth and seventh grader than your time is bad

its a good time for starting

what i am saying is that if you were to go to do track this year, your time will probably drop to 5:10s or maybe even less by the end of the year

Considering the fact that you're not in XC or track, thats pretty good. Join track and you'll get pretty fast.
