The mile run is not an Olympic event. The closest one is the 1500 meter run, which is 0.932 mile. At the time I write this ... end of July 2012 ... I don't know what will happen at London. The current Olympic record for that event was set at Sydney in 2000 by Noah Ngeny of Kenya, who ran 1500 meters in 3:32.07 .

To calculate 1500 as a percentage of 2000, you would divide 1500 by 2000 and then multiply by 100. This would give you the answer in percentage form. So, (1500/2000) x 100 = 75%. Therefore, 1500 is 75% of 2000.
The world record for the 50 meter freestyle was set in 2000 by Alexander Popov. His time was 21.64 seconds. This translates to 2.31 meters/second.
