How long will it take to walk all of mars?

Walking the entire surface of Mars would be practically impossible due to its size and inhospitable conditions. Mars has a surface area of about 144 million square kilometers, which is about the same as the land area of Earth. Considering the lack of atmosphere, extreme temperatures, and rugged terrain, walking all of Mars would be a monumental and dangerous endeavor.

How long does it take to train for a marathon?

One mile increase per week, so 26 weeks if you haven't run much before

What are the rules of the Beep Test?

The Beep Test, also known as the Multi-Stage Fitness Test, involves running a set distance at increasing speeds according to audio cues. Participants must run back and forth between two markers before each beep, with the time between beeps shortening as the test progresses. When a participant can no longer keep up with the pace and reach the marker before the beep, the test is over, and their level and distance covered are recorded.

What is the average time for a person to run a 12k race?

The average time for a person to run a 12k race can vary depending on factors such as fitness level, age, and experience. However, for a recreational runner, it may take anywhere from 1 hour to 1 hour and 30 minutes to complete a 12k race. More experienced or competitive runners may finish in under 50 minutes.

What is world record 200 mile run?

What is the 3 mile run time world record?

Who won the Mens 4 mile world record?

According to Gerry Lindgren, the men's 4 mile world record is 16:08, set by Gerry Lindgren in 1968 just prior to the Olympics. He apparently ran the time at Mt. Sac, claiming that he averaged 4:02 per mile over the hilly course. An unbelievable time, literally, considering he would have set the 3000 meter, 2 mile, 3 mile, and 5000 meter world records (set on a track, mind you) along the way. The real answer to the question is presumably the time Bekele recorded while en route to his 10000 meter world record of 26:17. According to a pace calculator, his time at 4 miles was roughly 16:55.

Who holds the record for the longest distance run?

Robert Garside, a British man nicknamed "The Runningman", who, according to Guinness World Records, was the first person to run around the world. He ran over 35,000 miles in 5 years and eight months (1997-2003).

How long does it take to run 1.5km?

Most people should aim to do it in under 8 minutes.

How long will it take to complete a 10K?

This definitely depends...

Walking (20 min/mile) = about 124 minutes

Beginners (11-13 min/mile) = 68-80 minutes

Average (8-11 min/mile) = 49-68 minutes

Fast (5-7 min/mile) = 31-43 minutes

Most NORMAL people probably run about 9-12 min/mile... Just to estimate.

Keep in mind that your 10k pace will be slower than, say, your 5k pace, because it's a longer distance.

If you know your pace per mile (example 10:32), just multiply it by 6.2 to get your estimated 10k time. Your actual time, however, will be at least 30 seconds slower.

What is the average time to run a kilometer?

That really depends on your fitness level. Elite runners do about 3 minutes to the km, while amateurs might do about the double. Anything from less than 30 minutes to more than one hour. I'd be fairly pleased if I did it in 40.

How many times around a football pitch is 1.6 km?

Not every football pitch is exactly the same size, which makes the answer this question produces very different. According to "Association Football Pitch" - Wikipedia - the average dimensions for a British Premier League Soccer Pitch measured 104 x 68 meters, or 114 x 74 yards. If this was the case, then running one lap of a soccer oval would be equivalent to 344 meters.

So...

1600 / 344 = 4.652

In other words, jogging around a soccer field just over 4 1/2 times would equal the desired distance you're after.

However, if you really want to make sure you've got that exact mile in, then keep reading...

The field description in the laws of soccer say that a field must be at least 90 meters long, but no longer than 120 meters. In the same sense, it must be at least 45 meters wide, but no wider than 90 meters.

With this being the criteria, the smallest official soccer field possible would measure 90 x 45, which would give a perimeter of 270 meters.

1600 / 270 = 5.926

With a pitch this size, you would have to run around the pitch nearly six complete times for a full mile. On the other hand, a pitch that measures 90 x 120 meters would give a perimeter of 420 meters.

1600 / 420 = 3.801

With a pitch this size, you would have to run around the pitch nearly four complete times for a full mile.

Of the three scenarios, your safest assumption is with the first, unless you can see it is very unusual in size in the fact it is either extremely big or extremely small.

What is a good mile time for a 13 year old?

maybe around 3 mins, but it depends on her speed and how fast she can run!!

Fastest mile ever run is, I believe 4 minutes.

So, a good mile and a half would be about 9-11 minutes, at a good pace, but like the previos poster said, it all depends on their speed.

  • Shorts

How much can you decrease your 5k time in 5 months when its currently 37 min?

It depends on if you go running everyday and for how long. It's better to vary the distance you run per week (e.x. week 1 20miles, week 2 20miles, week 3 15miles, week 4 25miles) because it helps with your distance and speed. It also depends on if you push yourself of not, because if you don't then you probably won't see the results you want. I would also cross train and work on my core.

Why do your breasts hurt after running?

because of the friction created between the t-shirt and the nipples....

How long does it take to run a half marathon?

The amount of time it would take an individual to train for half of a marathon is determined on the individual's level of physical fitness at the start of the training. If the individual has no fitness level, it would be safer to start slow, as not to hurt yourself. This type of training should be expected to take anywhere from 3-6 months.

How much should you run to train for a half marathon?

It depends on how much running experience you have already and how much time you have to train.

If you must walk on the highway you should?

must go on left side only that means on footpath

What is a good time for a beginner 5km?

I am in high school and i was number 15 on the team when i ran a 23:33 in a 5k race. A good time to run it for a physical fit person would probablly be around there but if you arent in shape or are hurt, then a 25 or 26 minute 5k would be acceptable as well

Who broke the 3-minute mile and when?

No one on record has broken the 3 minute mile in the last 116 years (since the first modern Olympics). Any records older than that are up for speculation since the mile was not always a standardized race. Here are a few cool stories though:

In 1870 a native American ran behind a horse for a mile. The horse was clocked at 2:40, the native American was not clocked. However, eye witnesses noted his distance behind the horse at the start and at the end of the mile as being very close to the same.

Ladas of Argos in the ancient Greek Olympics. No specific time was recorded, and the distance was 20 stades (about 2.5 miles), but the inscription on his statue says "His speed was demoniac, nor could it even be described."

Asahel from The Bible (2nd Samuel 2) during a battle, chased Abner running fast enough to impale himself on the butt end of a stationary spear which went through his entire body including the armor which he was wearing during the chase. The physics of such an account would suggest that a minimum speed of over 20mph (3 minute mile pace) would have been needed for the blunt pole to travel in one side and out the other side of his body through armor and muscle.

In England during the time of the Roman Empire (2nd century CE) entire tribes of warriors (with similar lifestyles to the native Americans) were noted as being able to catch and overwhelm horse riders while running on foot.

I would be difficult to get any of these, or the dozens of other accounts, to be recognized and accepted by modern scholars. And none of them could be labeled with an exact time or proven to be under a 3 minute mile, but they make for an interesting study.

How can you learn to run 5 miles?

Run More obviosuly, just try to run faster, common sence. The time it took you to ask this you could of been outside. Running or trying to improve.
