100 Meter Dash

run faster than your competitions

they take around 17 breaths with a heart rate avreage of around 134 bpm

3-4 minutes give or take.

I'm not sure how old this question (and the answers are) but the info isn't at all accurate. From someone who is in the middle of the junior olympic circuit for track, and the father of a 10 year old girl who runs the 800m, I can offer some accuracy here.

First off, when you ask what's a good 800m time, I would start with what's good in elementary school meets around the country. In those races, a 3 minute 800m will generally win the race. When you compete regionally and nationally among the fastest 10 year old girls in the country, a 3 minute 800m isn't competitive. In those races, you'll see the very fastest 10 year old girls running 2:30. It should be noted that there are very few of these girls. Then between 2:35 and 2:40 are the next tier of runners. These girls are extremely fast, and arguably elite runners, but they're just a few seconds behind the truly fastest.

So a 3 minute 800m is quite good, but it's really relative to the level you want to compare it to.

Fully Automated Timing. It refers to photo-finish equipment.

yes.

Question: Who was the last man to hold both the 100m and 200m world records at the same time? Answer: It was Ray Norton of the United States. On April 18, 1959 he tied the world record of 10.1 in the 100m in San Jose, California, USA. Then on April 30, 1960 he tied the world record of 20.6 in the 200m in Philadelphia, United States. Therefore on April 30, 1960 he held world records in both the 100m and 200m. Since then no man has held the world records in the 100m and 200m at the same time, until Usain Bolt in 2008. Almost 50 years later! Bolt set world records of 9.69 in the 100m and 19.30 in the 200m at the Olympic Games in Beijing China in August of 2008. -Asad Raza

One yard is the same as 0.9144 meters.

60 yards is equivalent to about 55metres, so it will be a little bit below 6.9 maybe?

That is amazing! You are a very fast runner, and should join track when you get older. That is very fast. Why you would have any doubts of yourself being fast I have no idea. You have a knack for running, and you should definatley keep it up! -Minicooper out!

Not sure exactly but around 1 minute flat. There have been many girls near the top of the world in swimming at around 15 years old so the fastest ever will be quite fast.

The first world record for the 100 metres took place in Stockholm Sweden on July 6th 1912. The time was 10.6 by a man called Don Lippincot from the USA. It was duplicated (10.6 again) by Jacklin Scholz, again in Stockholm on Sept 16th 1920.

23-26 seconds Young elites

His best 100m time was 9.87s

A time of 15.1 seconds in the 100 meters for a 12 year old is a good time. It is not considered especially fast, but it is likely as fast or faster than average.

between 55.4mph.- 89.4

1 meter = 1.0936 yards (rounded)

You can but your time would actually be slower than if you just sprint through. The best way is to lean as you break the finish line.

Would probably depend upon the gauge of the cable, the type of metal used to conduct the electricity, what kind of shielding/jacketing around the wire, and how many breaks there are in the cable i.e. crimped butt connectors if applicable.
