7 to 9 minutes is what you would get if you had done no prior running or are not in shape. 5 to 6 minutes is what you would get if you were in shape or had some prior running. Sub 5 minute miles are serious runners.

Depends on your age, gender, and skill level. I am a 35yr old male in decent shape who just ran his first half marathon in 1:51. My goal was to get under 2 hours which I think is a good bar to set as a male.
I'd say the average half marathon time for a man is about 2 hours (~9:00 mile). However, lots of people do it much faster, and of course lots of people do it slower.
