You've been Battyed
Only 350 or so Americans have run the mile in under 4 minutes. Junior Miles Batty, new record holder at BYU, is one of them.

Re: You've been Battyed
I love how Jimmer even features in this article. Batty broke the BYU record for the mile or as coach Ed Eyestone said, "You could say he Jimmered the record."

Re: You've been Battyed
I go for a run now and wonder how I ever run as fast as I did back when I was younger. It's kind of sad and depressing.

Re: You've been Battyed
When I played lacrosse we never ran just one mile, but my best two mile was just over 12 minutes. I don't know if that's any good, but I know I was in great shape!
I'm just a regular, everyday normal guy,
I can't afford a car, I use public transportation,
I don't mind, I read till I reach my destination,
sometimes a newspaper, sometimes a book,
the money I save, this stuff is off the hook,

Re: You've been Battyed
My high school senior year the track coach made us go out for cross country, which at the time was two miles. My first practice I couldn't even finish, but my final race I ran 11:45, which was about 8th or 9th on the squad...not bad for a high jumper.Schmoe wrote:When I played lacrosse we never ran just one mile, but my best two mile was just over 12 minutes.

They make me run in the Army. I don't know why. Haven't met a Soldier yet who could outrun a bullet.
