My best mile was in high school: 6:10. Today I generally run 2 miles in about 13-14 minutes, so I haven't lost too much of it.

Ran about ~30 minutes in a 5k a few years ago. Nothing very impressive, I'm a poor long-distance runner.
My best 10k was 34:20, but that was 80-90 pounds and over 20 years ago.

I was never a very good long-distance runner. 5K would really be pushing it for me.
Ah, was waiting for this thread! I used to run fairly seriously back in the day - ran the marathon for the Army in the inter-services; back then I'd aim to do a mile in 6:30 which gave an overall time of not far over 2 hours 45 minutes; unfortunately not good enough for the GB selectors with their pool of 'gentleman amateurs'! I still get up to London occasionally running for the ABF but I'm reduced to aiming for eight minutes to the mile which means coming in at 3 and a half hours. If shorter distances count I was quite proud that once I was running seriously I could do the Battle Fitness Test - a 1.5 mile run in an age before the rest of the army thought it was worth doing - in seven and a half minutes, but I struggle to do that in nine now. Love running, me, keeps me sane. Honest.

He means 80-90 pounds less...
Oh, I get it... I plead Britishness, your honour. We don't speak the same language it seems
Yeah, I meant that my racing weight was around 140 pounds, but now I weigh about 225. I recently found a picture of me in a college race on my 21st birthday. A lot skinnier than I remembered (6 foot even height).

I just took part in the Helsinki City Run half-marathon today.
New personal record at 1:24:37. I'm thinking of doing a full one later this summer, although I doubt I could get it under 3 hours.

My absolute best mile ever was 7:15 
If I tried to run an 8 minute mile now, I would probably be too exhausted to run for another week.

I used to run 2.4 km in 10 minutes 30 seconds. I've never been that fit since.

I'm not well accustomed to distance running. My feet are extremely flat, and large to boot. Many times after running a few miles even with prescribed orthotics my feet/ankles will start to act up.
That said, my best mile time ever was 6:03 when I was a Freshman in High School on the soccer team. Nowadays I could probably match that time or maybe go a few seconds over but I haven't timed myself in a mile for quite some time.

Best half-marathon - 1hr 42
Best 10km - 45mins
Best mile - 6.27mins (but that absolutely killed me, never ever again)
And I'll let you know my marathon time when I do one!
