John Walker was the first man to run one mile under four minutes. He ran one mile in 3:50 (3 minutes, 50 seconds).
The time it takes to run a mile varies based on an individual's speed and fitness level. On average, a person might take about 10 to 12 minutes to walk a mile and 7 to 9 minutes to run it at a moderate pace. Elite runners can complete a mile in under 5 minutes. Therefore, it depends significantly on the person's ability and the context of the activity.
20 minutes is average.
I'm not sure if you can walk a mile in 20 minutes but I'm able to run a mile in 10 minutes.
(68 minutes / 10,000 meters) x (1,609.344 meters / mile) = 10.944 minutes per mile (rounded)
7.58 minutes per mile.
