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.
The 6 Mph Threshold. A 5K equals 3.1 miles. You can warm up with a brisk five-minute walk on the treadmill and, if you are new to 5Ks, track your distance and time on the treadmill readout to get some idea of how long this distance takes you to walk, jog or run -- or a blend of all three.or example, if you want to finish your 5K in 30 minutes, divide 3.1 by 0.5, which equals 30, and divide that by 60, for a result of 6.2 mph. Applying the same formula to complete a 5K in 25, 20 or 15 minutes, set the treadmill speed at 7.4, 9.3 and 12.4 mph, respectively.
