When running a mile on a high school track, you typically start in the innermost lane, which is Lane 1. However, if you're participating in a race, you may begin in a staggered start position that allows runners to begin at the same distance from the finish line. For practice, running in Lane 1 ensures you cover the exact mile distance of four laps around the track.

Nearly all high school running tracks are nominally a "quarter-mile" or 440 yard track. But there is a difference in distance depending on which lane you run in. If you stay in the outside lanes and don't move to the inner lane during the turns, you'll be running significantly longer.
