Cooper's 12 Min Run

I had to run on a track to see how far I could travel in 12 min. It is called Cooper's 12 Min Run. Here's how I did:

• How far did you make it? (record in miles and meters)

1st attempt: 1600 m (1 mile) 2nd attempt: 1800m (1.1 miles) 3rd attempt: 1700m (1 mile)

• Where did you take the test? (i.e.,400m track, indoor track at a local gym, road course, etc)

On a road around my neighborhood

• What time of day did you take the test?

At night

• What was the approximate temperature when you took the test?

70-80˙F

• How did you feel after the test?

Out of breath, tired, but happy I could do the test.

• Do you feel like you did you best?

Yes indeed. On the 3rd attempt I had to push myself extra hard after the test was over, so I could get home in time to turn the assignment in.

• What, if anything, kept you from doing your best?

Nothing.
