    • @stephanbonnar6311
      @stephanbonnar6311 4 роки тому +4

      7 is a pretty decent time, these people are actual runners. I’d keep that 7 minute but make sure you can keep that pace for 3-5 miles and it would be pretty safe to say you’re a healthy person. Most people can’t even run a 9 minute mile.
