200 Meter Dash

This race is the ultimate test of sprinters. If you go too fast, you could burn out, or if you go too slow, you won't be able to make up enough ground. This is where 100-meter runners face off with 400-meter runners.

How far is the 200 meter dash in a mile course?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Not sure exactly what your question is, but I'll give it a go.

If you're asking how many laps it would take, 1 mile around a 200m track would be 8 laps, as a mile is a little over 1600m.

As for your time, it is probably going to be slightly slower than what you would run on a standard 400m track, due to the fact that one runs faster on a straight path than a curve, and a 200m track will have more turns.

There are no such thing as trials for a fourteen year old, however, an indication of what a is a good standard is the UK power of 10 target. This is a target set by UKA for at least 10 people to reach in an age group. For under 15 males it is 12.45m and for under 17 females it is 11.50m.
