7 to 9 minutes is what you would get if you had done no prior running or are not in shape. 5 to 6 minutes is what you would get if you were in shape or had some prior running. Sub 5 minute miles are serious runners.

Depends on your age, gender, and skill level. I am a 35yr old male in decent shape who just ran his first half marathon in 1:51. My goal was to get under 2 hours which I think is a good bar to set as a male.

I'd say the average half marathon time for a man is about 2 hours (~9:00 mile). However, lots of people do it much faster, and of course lots of people do it slower.

Is training solely on the treadmill a bad method in preparation to run a half marathon?

Yes, it is. Running on a treadmill will certainly help, but treadmills don't have the incline variability of natural terrain, so your body won't be prepared to run the half-marathon. Training on a treamill is a great way to prepare for a mini marathon. It would also be a good idea to get some actual track time in if possible.


What is a negative split In a Marathon?

A negative split in a marathon is where you run the first half or maybe even the first 10 miles of the race slower than your goal pace. Then the last half of your marathon, you pick up the pace, running faster than your goal pace to make up for the lost time from running slower in the first half of the race. This is a good technique to running a marathon because since it is such a long distance you conserve a lot of energy in the first half, and save it for the last part of the race. Running slower then faster than your goal pace will still get you your goal time if done correctly, you are just running in a different way.
