Alright just out of interest I wanted to know what the current fastest Mile time ever recorded is….this is kind of unbelievable.
The current world record in the mile is 3 minutes 43.13 seconds, set by Hicham El Guerrouj of Morocco on July 7, 1999.
If you have ever attempted to run the mile the thought of doing it in 3:43 is hard to fathom. I think I have done a 5:44 as my quickest recorded. I have to mention that I did feel as though my heart may stop at the conclusion of that run and I was racing a good friend of mine that I do not like to lose to at the time. I can’t imagine the pace needed for 3:43.
4 minutes may not be achievable for me at this time but atleast I know it is possible thanks to Roger Bannister.
