What is a good 400m time for beginner?

Probably 2.5–3 minutes. For an athlete, 70–90 seconds. For a young athlete specializing in short-distance track events, 55–60 seconds. For an experienced long sprinter, 45–50 seconds.

What is a good 400m sprint time for an 18 year old?

Roughly, you can take your best 200 meter dash, multiply by 2 and add 2.5- 3.5 seconds (for a high school runner) to get a pretty good ballpark of your potential. If you run Indoor Track, take 2 seconds off of your best open 400 Meter time – and you have your Outdoor target.

What’s the best time you can run in the 400m?

You get to start all over again each year! Breaking a minute (for guys) is good for the 400m, but a time in the mid 50 seconds will get you pretty far.

How old should you be to run 400 meters?

A few years ago, a reader mentioned a 400 meters Run-Your-Age award when your 400m time (in seconds) matches your age (in years). Let’s say 55 seconds at age 55. But is that really a viable goal?

What should my 400 meter dash time be?

A good 400m runner will run much faster, for example Mekhi Gammons of Miami Gardens Xpress in 2019 ran a 48 sec 400m. If your goal is to be competitive and place on the regional level, you would want to run at least sub 55. The varsity letter time for boys at my high school was 1 minute for the 400 meter.
