800 Meter Run

1.9888129 miles.

no it doesnt

There are 1609.344 metres in one mile. Therefore, rounded to three significant figures, 800 metres is equal to 800/1609.344 = 0.497 miles.

As of 18 May 2013, the fastest 800m run (or 800m world record) was done at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, United Kingdom, on the 9th of August by David Rudisha of Kenya. Rudisha ran the 800m in 1:40.91, breaking his own world record by ten hundredths of a second (previously 1:41.01).

You can watch his awesome run in the video in the related links section.

No.

Wilson Kipketer, a Kenyan who was living in Denmark, was considered the favorite in the time leading up to the 1996 Games. But Kipketer was not a full citizen of Denmark and the Kenyan Olympic Committee protested his participation. The International Olympic Committee agreed and Kipketer was not allowed to compete at the 1996 Games.

Athletes from Kenya had won the previous 2 Olympic men's 800 meter events and were expected to be the favorites in the competition.

Vebjørn Rodal of Norway had never won an international event and was not considered to be a medal contender. But he won the gold medal in a time of 1:42.58 which is still an Olympic record. Four of the runners (Rodal, Hezekial Sepeng of South Africa, Fred Onyancha of Kenya, and Norberto Téllez of Cuba) finished the race in under 1:43 in what was one of the most exciting races of the 1996 Games. The time difference between 1st place and 4th place was .27 seconds.

The Olympic gold medal was Rodal's only international victory of his career.

a great time for a 12 year old boy would be anywhere 2:40 and 2:30

and for a 12 year old girl probably around 3:15 to 3:00 would be a great time

The Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 200 and 240 is 1,200.

well if you really want to then @ practice actually run and then ur time will drop

In my opinion i would use spikes because they have better traction on tracks and gives you an edge because the are lightweight and in the rain it would help you. But make sure the spikes are water proof. Running Flats may slip on the ground so it is better to use spikes.

David Rudisha is the longest 800m sprinting

if you are running on a regular highschool track which is about 400meters then (if you do the math) 2 laps around the track is an 800m race

I'd say basically go out hard and run it like a 400, but stay relaxed through the quarter, then power it through the last 100, all guts. Your 400 split should be about 3 seconds off of you normal 400 time.

well im 12 and i can run 2 km in under 7 mins, so you lookin around 3 mins :D

My daughter age eleven can run a 2.1 km in 6:57 and so you could look about 3:30. Depends on how fast you are!

Depends on how good he/she is. Pamela Jelimo is a rich one.

2 Minutes 30 seconds if you want to win meets.

you dont have to run as fast as that person said. When i was in middle school, i came in first twice in the 800 with a time of like 2:45.

-----------------------------------

Definitely a broad statement. At my middle school the leader runs a 2:17. I run a 2:26 and only 5th best on the team.

I think that around the 3 minute mark is good

A good time is anything under 14 minutes

Alberto Juantereno from Cuba won the 400m and 800m at the Montreal Olympic Games in 1976.

a long long time

I don't know how the standards are for a SC high school but where I am 2:30 and below is when the times start to get good for girls and 2:10 and below for guys.

i believe 800 meters. a good time for a 12 year old girl would be 2:50. A good time for 400 meters would be 80 seconds. If u want to win thoses are good times

if your a good runner you should be around 2:00 im 14 ran a 2:15 but that's just meeeeeeee
