how many meters are there on a regular school track?
153083
All tracks are 400 meters or 440 yards.   4 laps to a mile.

Track dimensions are going to vary. Most run about 110 yds on the straightaways and 110 yds on each of the turns which give you a radius of 35 yd.\n\nAccording to one rules document that I found, a standard 400m track is going to have curves with radius of 36.5 meters.\nThat gives you total distance on the curves of 229 m. That would make the straightaways 85.5 meters long.\n\n400m = 437.44 yds

first off  it's the 1500 in college or the mile.  figure out the world record, add about 20 seconds.  if you are closer, make sure your times are posted in a local newspaper.  send clippings and have your high school coach talk to the colleges for you.

Most high schools and colleges have running tracks.  Check your phone book for local schools.

People, think about it, the modern world record is 3:40...so anything under 4 minutes is like national champion (of a pretty big country).\n\nA quarter mile is about 8 lengths in a 50 m (olympic size) pool. I'm a certified lifeguard and I think I would be struggling to get under 5:20.\n\nThe average swimmer will definitely take more than 10 minutes.\nThe average lane swimmer will definitely take less than 10 minutes.\n\nAnd 400 m is once around the track (soccer field size) plus the straightaway (100m).

A little trick that my track coach used...\nBuy some tennis balls, and simply cut them in half. Place them on the inside of your runner's lane. This makes for a bright marker that allows your runners to easily make the exchange. This is also a legal marker in most High School and Middle School track associations.

It depends on the course, which changes from year to year.  For 2006 the total distance will be 3,639 km.  Last year, the total distance was 3,608 km.

The difference in speed is 6.45-5.30 = 1.15 m/s.\n\nThe track is 198 m long - so the faster runner must catch up by this much to lap the slower.\n\nThis will take 198/1.15 seconds.\n\nThe slower one will have run 198 x 5.30/1.15 m.

It is 1 kilometer (1000 meters). Roughly 3281 feet or .62 miles.

You can find the specification in the IAAF Competition Rules, under Rule 187.\n\nhttp://www.iaaf.org/downloads/IAAFhandbook/index.html

I don't exactly get "excited" about indoor track; outdoor track is definetly better, but cross-country is the best. I don't really like running on the track (i run distance) because it gets boring, running 8 times around the track.

About 1/2 mile.  Too far when I was on swimteam!  15 laps on an Olympic sized pool.

It greatly varies depending on which school you go to and where.  The standard is school starts around 8am and ends around 2:30pm.  5 classes each day is typical.

100 meters\n200 meters\n400 meters\n\nThese are the 4 standard sprint events, if you can call the 400 a sprint.  The 100 is done on the straightaway, and the 200 starts in the middle of one straightaway and ends on the opposite side.  The 400 starts in the same place, but you take a whole lap.

100m, 200m, long jump, and triple jump.  Well, I did those back in High School anyway.
