Once had a boy (Jake), who never became varsity-fast or even JV-good, but over the course of 4 years went from running (running the whole way) a 5K in a little over 51:00 all the way down to 23:40.
Dude, no one is going to click on all those links. Give us a quick summary of those you want to highlight instead.
My first race as a junior was 19:59
My last race as a senior was 17:00
I will always regret only running XC for two years.
First race in HS I ran 23:XX, walked a short section of it. I think this was after essentially 1-2 weeks of practice. I ran like 19:30 later that year. Ran 17:10 as a soph and 16:10 as a Junior. At that point, I thought I'd be able to just keep improving indefinitely, but alas, that's not the case. 19:30 sounds pretty good to me these days!
I went from 14:00 2 mile as a freshman, to 10:00 senior year. Did not run at all junior year.
jr yr coach asked me to come out to track practice after running a 5 flat mile in health class. 1st 880 race ever jr yr hs-2:14, Senior Yr HS last race 1:53.8, ended up 1:46 in college.

Uh wrong, I DNF'd my first 5 or 6 races then improved to 17:52 in the 5k. So I did what you did times 5 or 6 and still ran faster.
