How fast should a 13 year old girl run the 800m?

Answer 1

Personally, I run my first lap a little easier, and start my kick with about 300 meters to go. When I was in 8th grade (I'm a girl) I could run mine in around 2:30ish. My coaches always told me that i went out too slow, so i would recommend not sprinting at the beginning, but running fairly hard.

Answer 2

To run a fast 800, you cannot start out too slow or too fast. You must start off steady and controlled for about the first 200 meters. Your first 200 meters should be paced at a specific time. From then on, try for negative splits, meaning each 200 is faster than the previous. Try to speed up at the halfway point, pushing yourself. The last 200 meters should be everything you have left. If you've done it right, you shouldn't have too much energy left, but just enough to finish strong and fast. Overall, leave everything on the track, and never hold back. All it takes to run a fast 800 meters is all you got!

Answer 3

im 15, i run a 2.31 and im decent. so you should be around 3.00

I'd say 2:35-2:50. The top girl at my middle school was 2:37

Im 13 and i ran 800m in 2.33

Answer 4

all out, the whole time. no use saving anything, its so short.

Answer 5

Since a 800m is half a mile anywhere 3:45-below is good for a 13 year old girl (that would be estimating around a 7:00/7:15 minute mile)
