I just don't think it is enough work for your muscles to develop into anything

Is this what I'm aiming for? My legs never get tired, it's my lungs.

I believe a very reasonable percentage of people (thinking guys under 30) could do a six minute mile if they wanted to, even with no training (assuming they aren't fat or a smoker).

I disagree fairly strongly with this. I'd go as far as to say it's less then 10%. Prob less then 5%.

Not disrespect to the OP, but if you are motivated, running a 7 minute mile shouldn't be a big problem for most people. I believe you'd have to be in really pretty bad shape or a heavy smoker for this to be challenging.

I had no idea if the 7-6 min change would be reasonable during the time frame, thus why I started the thread. I've never done any sort of running with a time as a goal before, so I have nothing to base it on.
