anything under 8mins would be amazing, each guy would have to run sub 2mins pretty much ....which is impossible almost

It is far from possible. There are numerous teams all around the country that can break 8:00. Just look @ the national rankings from previous years on dyestat. In 2003 Tn had 3 teams run under 8:00: Mcminn, Baylor, and Bearden.

 

Last year my team made state while only running 8:27 @ sectinals. So if you are just wanting to make it to the big show it will mostly depend on how fast the teams in your section are. I would say that 8:10 will be fast enough to compete for the 4x800 state title in AAA this year.

the 8 min barrier for boys is tough but not impossible and you don't have to go out of state. last year 3 AAA teams qualified for state with 8:02 and 8:04's. in 2003, the top 2 were 7:55 and 7:57 and the 2002 winner was 7:53. state record 7:44. in A-AA, the best time last year to qualify was 8:18 and the last team was 8:54.
