Do you exercise at all right now? How long since you ran in high school? I doubt you could just head out after 10 years and average a 9 minute mile over a 5-mile course.

A little background: I ran cross-country my freshman year in high school. I was decent but nothing special. My best time was 20:xx (5k or 3.1 mile race). Fast forward 4 years later, and I am incredibly out of shape.



so he is a SR in HS, I think since he is young, it could be doable, its not like he is 27 and hasnt worked out since college or anything.

I agree it's probably doable if he is still in high school. I was envisioning a 27 year old office worker heading out to the track for the first time this century.
