How long does it take to run 4 miles?

It depends on how fast you're running. A "regular joe" who isn't a runner would probably not be able to run four miles without walking a little bit, and might do 14- to 17-minute miles. An average runner would probably do 10- to 12-minute miles for that distance. A fast runner or a good cross-country runner might do 7- to 9-minute miles. A SUPER fast runner could do 5- or 6-minute miles.

5-minute mile: 20:00

6-minute mile: 24:00

7-minute mile: 28:00

9-minute mile: 36:00

10-minute mile: 40:00

12-minute mile: 48:00

14-minute mile: 56:00

17-minute mile: 1:08:00

Personally, if you're a runner, I think that you should aim to eventually do 4 miles in under 40 minutes. If you're not a runner, just completing 4 miles is great.
