The 2004 Olympic gold medalist in the 100 meter dash was Justin Gatlin of the United States in a time of 9.85 seconds.
What is the average time for boys 200 meter dash?
For a really good athlete who is a girl a time would be about 29 seconds. For a male it would be about 24 seconds. For girls a bad time would be around 35 and for a guy around 31.
If you ran a 55 meter dash time what would it be converted to 40 yard dash time?
It all really comes down to age, gender, and competition. So good for one person could be okay for another
What is a good 55 meter dash time for high school boys?
Average time would be about 15-16 seconds A good time would be 14 seconds 13 seconds or less is amazing (girls) Average: 14-15 seconds Good: 13 seconds Amazing: 12 or less (would get you into States) (boys)
How does a 40-yard time relate to 100 meter times - Personal examples would be great?
It doesn't. The 40 yard time is simply a mark in which a sprinter is suppose to reach top speed, and can't accelerate any more. If properly trained, they should retain that top speed for the duration of the 100 meter dash. Carl Lewis basically said when he broke the world record, was that he decelerated less than every one else...thats why he wins. Also, in the 100 meter dash there is very little room for error to comeback. Leroy Burrell proved, that even with a bad start, you can make a come back to break a world record. However, in the 40 yard dash there is no room for error. In my opinion, the 40 yard dash is for football players and the 100 and 200 meter dashes are for track and field athletes. And if you really want to step it up, the 400 meter run...which is also a sprint.
