A: The American System was presented by Speaker Henry Clay in 1824 as a plan to strengthen and unify the nation through national development. The plan was advanced by additional leading politicians, including John Quincy Adams and John C. Calhoun.
If you're talking about the actual time it takes to physically run a 5k (and not how long it would take to train for one), it's about 30 minutes. 5k is around 3.1 miles, so if â¦ you average 10 minutes per mile, it's 30 minutes total.
You'll see that finishing times for a 5K span a very wide range because there's usually a mix of experienced, fast runners and beginner runners and walkers. The winning male may run the 5K course somewhere between 13 to 15 minutes and the winning female may run it in the 16 to 19 minute range. Some walkers may take over an hour to finish. Most people feel good about finishing in the 20 to 25 minute range (6:26/mile to 8:21/mile pace).
