How fast can you run a mile?

For those of you who go to the gym and do treadmill work, or jog on a regular basis. How long does it take you to run a mile? Every now and then I get in the mood to do a little running on the treadmill we have and I was just curious to see how out of shape my a$$ is. Took me about 12 and 1/2 minutes tonight. Haven't been on the thing in a while though. Pretty crappy I'm guessing, but just wanted to see what you health nuts average.

I can do a 6 pretty easily.

Im hoping you were walking slowly on the treadmill and not jogging? 😛
 
The fastest I've ever run a mile that I know of is 5 min 50 seconds. Now, I'm out of shape. I can do a 7 minute mile pretty easily now, but I wouldn't be worth much after.

I used to know guys that can run the mile in 4 min 23 seconds.
 
I used to be able to run them in 5m55s but that was about 7 years ago. I'm working up to that again. 🙂

Yeah, I realized just now I walked the first 2 1/2 minutes for kind of a warm up. So if I had actually run the whole time, it would have been faster. My treadmill's got a read out on how fast you're running and when I started jogging I put it up to 5.4 mph which wasn't exactly kicking my ass after 6 minutes so I bumped it up to 5.7mph. 10 minutes into though I was sucking some wind. I gotta get back into running on it every other day like I was doing. Damn all you skinny little high school track stars and your 6 minute miles!!!! I used to be in shape, then I got a girlfriend who isn't very sporty.
