Question: What does the average woman in her mid 20's run a mile in?

I just started running this week to prepare for the police academy in six months...I am starting off at a 12 minute mile. Is that way out of the norm for someone my age, who just started running? ( I haven't had a good work out since I was 15 and I have mild asthma.)

And no, I am not over weight, just out of shape right now!

Thanks

Answers:

The average women can not run a mile, so you are doing well.
In six months you should pass the test if you are consistent and train regularly.

the average woman usually runs a mile in jogging clothes

I don't think so! I think that's great! Most 8th graders do it in about 8 min. but a majority do it in 16+. Keep trying!
