running a mile
ok. i run track but i am soooo out of shape.. my friend and i are getting in shape and track tryouts are in less than a month. making it is not the problem.. i no ill make it i was on the teamm last year and my coach always talks to me and my friend about what events we are doing this year. but anyway. i guess u would have to no us to understand but our track coach expects ALOT from us so in gym we have to run a mile and he wants us to do it in under 7 minutes b/c we are in 8 grade and he said track runners in 8 grade should be able to run a mile in under 7 min. well we both have no endurance and are strictly sprinters. anybody have any tips in running a mile?
sorry its so long

If you're just starting out, chances are you aren't going to be able to run a mile in under 7 minutes. To do so, I suggest trying to run everyday, even if it's just on a treadmill.
I don't think there are any specific "tips" about running a mile, just practice, stretch, breath the right way, and hydrate yourself.
Good luck. =P

There's no trick to becoming faster unless you get into shape & practice, practice, practice. Learn the proper way to breathe (if you don't know already) to help you get through that mile faster. Get out there & run a mile everyday with your friend until tryouts. Time eachother & set new goals each time & by the time tryouts come, you should be fine. Good luck!

well, im a 7th grade track star and i no that this is hard for you.i just got my physical yesterday and did great but tryouts are on monday and the most ive run in past 6 months, at one time, is 2 miles.i ran that in the time it took me to run 3.1 miles the year before.what i would suggest is strecht as much as you possibly can,best if you do it every day up until tryouts, and then run a mile every day and time yourself each time and work towards beating your time for each new day.
there isnt really to much more you can do except hope for the best.hope this helps atleast a pinch:)
