I'd say 28-32 min mate.

sounds about right , you should be aiming for round 28 mins .. a decent 1.5 mile is around 10 mins (unless going para) so .. 1.5 miles + 1.5 miles = 20 mins then you should be aiming to run the final mile in 8 mins

but there would be nothing wrong with adding say 3-5 minutes onto that, since you may wish to run at a slightly slower pace than you would the 1.5mile.

Correct, you cannot expect to keep up with you 1.5mile pace over 4 miles. The further you go the more you will tire thats why I put 28-32 because he asked what was a good time
