No, it is not humanly possible to run 5 miles within 15 minutes. To run 5 miles within 15 minutes, you would need to maintain an average pace of 3 minutes per mile, which is faster than the current world record pace for a single mile. As of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021, the men’s world record for the mile is 3 minutes and 43 seconds, held by Hicham El Guerrouj of Morocco. Running 5 miles at that pace would take over 18 minutes. Therefore, running 5 miles in 15 minutes is not achievable by any human athlete.
