text: what"s a good track time? i've never done track before but i do like to run and think it would be fun.  i'm in the nineth grade in high school and am considering doing the 1 mile race.  currently my times are all around 5min50sec.  what should my time be if i wanted to be a "good" runner for that race.  also what's a good time for the 3200meter. for the mile around 5:33- 5:47 as you have just begun,it'll get better with training, time and experience. the 3000m around 11:43
