On a standard track, one would run on the inside lane and do four complete laps to run 1600 meters (app one mile). The runners who run in any of the outer lanes get a staggered start (head start) to make up for the distance that one loses because of the wider turns. So, just stay on the inside lane and do four laps.

∙ 14y agoIf the race is done with a "waterfall" start, then run in lane 1 or as close to it as possible the whole time. If it is more official and there are zones marked by cones on the track specifying where you can cut in, run as close to the inside of the track as you can until you can cut in, then gradually merge toward lane one. lane one is the inner most lane and the shortest distance (400m) around.

How many miles in an oval outdoor field track in lane 4?
It depends on how long the track is, but on the normal 400M track, it takes a little more than four laps to make a mile (1609.344M), in lane 1. If you use the line marked 400M in each lane, then you will also run 400M in that lane, but once you go past the common start/finish line, you are going more than 400M per lap. The distance covered will be different depending upon whether the outside lane is the 4th lane (some practice and MS tracks), the 6th lane (some small HS tracks), the 8th lane (most HS, college and international tracks) or the 9th lane (some elite college and Olympic level international tracks).
How far is half a lap on a running track?
Since 1921, the IAAF has stated that a marathon's distance is standardized at 42.195K or 26 miles and 385 yards. If you are using a standard 400M track, and running exclusively in lane 1, then you will need to complete 105.4875 laps in order to complete a marathon or essentially 105 and 1/2 laps. If you use an outer lane, then you will not need to run as many laps.
What is a track in bowling?
A track in bowling is referring to the balls trajectory down the lane. Based on where a bowler aims, the lanes oils conditions, the bowling ball use, their rotation and other factors, the trajectory can be vastly different from game to game. A track can also refer to the oil track on a ball. Some bowlers use this track to determine how the ball is rolling and what part of the ball is actually in contact with the lane.
How do you make a stagger?
To find the stagger of a running track you must first have the lane width, if you don't then find it, and after you get the lane width which is approximately 1.22m meters you multiply it by 2 then by Pi, if you don't know what Pi is it's appro. 3.14 or 22 divided 7, so if the lane width was 1.22 i use the formula, (2 x Pi x lane width), 2 multiplied by 1.22 is 2.44 and then multiplied by Pi (3.14) you get 7.66, so each lane is 7.66 Meters ahead of the other :) HOPE THIS HELPED!

How much fat do you lose by running a mile?
One mile will take you maybe 10 minutes, and running can be about 450-600 cals, so 75-100 cals. About half an ounce, tops. Trouble is, if you've eaten anything recently, the energy from your running will come from that food, and not from fat. You need to drain all your easy energy before your body will start to use up the fat. An one mile just won't do that.
