100 Meter Dash

16 seconds if you push hard

A football coach might use a fast runner because if he wants to get a touchdown on the last four second or so the fast runner might make it on time and then they might win.

Usain Bolt and Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce won their respective 100m finals at the 2013 World Championships.

As with many athletes Florence Joyner faced many steroid use rumors. The health problems that ended her career was also a large challenge she faced.

Carl Lewis was born in Birmingham, Alabama on July 1, 1961.

I saw funny results on web about average men and women 100m times. Beside that, average 100m time for a healthy untrained male is around 13-14 seconds. Those in outstanding body condition (untrained) might run 12-13 seconds. Trained healthy male should run under 12 seconds - or at worst, low 12 seconds.

The objective is for an athlete to try their best to run faster or jump higher or jump longer than all of his/her competitors. This objective will be realized by the athlete practicing and learning how to run or jump to his/her best ability, warming up before the event, obeying all rules of competition, and showing good sportsmanship to teammates and competitors. The most important thing to realize is that there can only be one winner in each event. Sometimes we try our hardest but it isn't good enough and someone else wins. This is nothing to be ashamed of. As long as one tries their best, listens to their coach, and displays good sportsmanship they are a 'winner' regardless of where they finish in the event.

Biomechanics in the 100 meter sprint refer to the use and angle of the arms and legs. Much of what sprinters focus on is their biomechanics.

I would say that it depends on the IHOP early bird special.

The answer depends on how fast you walk: whether you are a brisk walker or someone who needs to shuffle along.

Yes, no one is allowed to step on the line while racing. Also the new USA Track and Field rule states that if anyone false starts they are immediately disqualified.

The world record for running 800 meters was set in 2010 by David Rudisha of Kenya in a time of 1:41.01.

Usain bolt broke his record on the 16th August 2009. The new 100 metre sprint record, set by him is 9.58.

Usain bolt made history in the 2008 Beijing games by running the 100 meter dash in 9.69 seconds- the world record.

Yes it's quite good considering you just started. But it won't be enough to win the states or even the regionals. You should be aiming for about 12-12.50 seconds. But if you want to win the states you should run at least a 11.95.

I'm 12 and can run the race in 2:50 -2:55. So I guess anything under 3:00 is good. 2:45 would be AMAZING, and anything else would be phenomenal! Don't listen to the 12 year olds claiming they can run 800m in 2:15 or stuff like that because those times are high school times and are nearly impossible for a 12 year old, well unless your fantastic, and few people are :) hope I helped!

It does varie. My best in junior high school was an 11.8, and i was running against people who were running 11.5 their eighth grade year. Low 12's is good, but if your running high elevens that's very good

For a 17 year old boy, the average 400m is anywhere from 54-51 seconds. For a 17 year old girl, there really is no average time because an individual's time can fluctuate anywhere from 73-59 seconds. It pretty much depends on your body type and how experienced you are with the race. Hope that helps :)

The answers can be found on the IAAF site. http://www.iaaf.org/statistics/records/inout=O/discType=5/disc=1000/detail.html The fastest times are... Men: 2:11.96 - Noah Ngeny of Kenya (record set in 1999). Women: 2:28.98 - Svetlana Masterkova of Russia (record set in 1996).

Anil kumar prakash (10.30s) .he clocked this time in 2005.mohammad najeeb qureshi also ran same time in commonwealth games . according to me anil is fastest ever because he was more consistent and also holds 200m national record(20.73).

If that time is true, you'll win every single race in High School and College, and you're probably two seconds faster than every single kid your age in the world. I'm sure you're very fast, but if you timed it yourself or had a friend time it, find someone else to do it. I imagine this time is due to human error.

the fastest time so far is an 11.2

Eddie Redmond clocked 11.01 in Canberra in 1998 at the secondary schools finals at the AIS track using their equipment.

i know a guy who is about to turn 15, he can do it in 10.78 seconds...i know this for a fact because i was there when it happend...he isn't a runner but a rower! you should be happy if your in the 11s.

I can do it in 10.4 but i have been training for a while i am 15 years old.

Lawrenceburg, IN, beat Batesville, IN, last week 69 to 68 on Friday, Sep 23, 2011

I'm 61, and I can do it in 16 seconds; maybe a little less if I really tried.
