As I said before I'm new at this and I have no idea what an "average" time for a mile would be. Right now I do a non-stop mile (1600 meters) in about 40 minutes. What would be a resonable time for a 48 year old in good good shape? I'm looking for a realistic goal.

Now if we are setting goal times. A fast time 20 min, a good time 22 min, a fair to middlin time 24 min, which is what I do (training pace), 26 is not bad, 40 min is a good starting point. Times can be improved with technique and work.
I did a hard swim the other day and did a 23 min mile, Race I don't know how fast I could do a mile.
