I got 2:40 to run 800 metres and i'm 15 and a half years old. what times here has anyone else got and what level am i running at?
also how can i improve this time?
thnx alot for any help
I ran a 2:25, and I didn't do any training for it at all actually. All I had was slightly after season form (so not at peak form) so it was still pretty good. I guess practicing that run at high intensity is really the only way you can improve this time.

I'm 16 and I am right at 2 minutes basically. like i ran a 2:08 i believe at practice one day. But i ran a 2:12 when i was 15 and before that i hadn't ran anything over a lap so i couldn't help you with the 14 year old stats. I ran several miles a day for a couple of months though with the track team 4 days a week.
i just recently had to improve my speed endurance for mountain rescue service
to improve 800m time you have to practice jogging for 1-2 hours almost everyday, and then run short distances at high pace...
then as you progress these short distances will get longer...
this works...

That's about my time if that gives you any insight

It means you're on par with the Guide Goddess with something. But you've got 2 years on her, so...

The lowest time is 1:58 and that is really the only one that'd be dificult although it's definately not impossible. People can run under 4 minute miles and that's a 2 minute 800m (times two).

I just tried it now, and with snow resistance and everything, I got around 2:34 for 800m. I think that's pretty good, considering I rarely run on a regular basis. It takes me around 4:12 to run a mile also.
