typical time for a 600 meter race?

Answer 1

There is not a 600 meter race in the Olympics, but if there were you could expect the time to be in the neighborhood of 70 seconds.

Answer 2

Typical? Difficult to answer. Boys' Times?
Suggest that you look up the last year's results on-line for several high school meets.
Don't know your ability, but suppose that you can manage a 59 sec. outdoor 400M; could you do an additional 200M in 35 sec? THat's a 1:34 600M. Remember, indoor times tend to be slower because of the additional turns, and traffic problems.
A 1:21 would put you up therre with the big guys. A 1:30 would probably get you some points at many meets. Depending on what the competition is in your area, 1:40 might not be too shabby.
For girls, a 1:35 would put you right up there with the big time high schoolers. The 1:45 - 1:55 range ain't too bad either to pick up team points.
Good luck; and experiment around with other indoor distances also.

Answer 3

I guess you are getting ready for the indoor season.
What high school age group are you, male/ female? I need more info to give you a good answer. Here an example in senior /male/female/highschool

High school girls(senior) 1:33.76
High school girls (junior) 1:44.69

High school boys(senior)1:19.41
High school boys(junior)1:27.95

as some people don't know there ARE 600m races, run in indoor track & field races, don't discount something unless you really know the answer.

Answer 4

World Records
MEN
1:12.81 - Johnny Gray [USA] 1986

WOMEN
1:22.63 - Ana Quirot [CUB] 1997

A 600m time would depend on your Endurance + Your 400m PR/PB

Some guestimations on my part:
400m PR: 50.00 - 600m est: 1:16.00-1:20.00
400m PR: 55.00 - 600m est: 1:23.00-1:26.00
400m PR: 60.00 - 600m est: 1:32.00-1:36.00

Good luck with all your running

Answer 5

I guess the world record would be a round 1.10

Answer 6

even if there WAS a 600m race, it would be recognized for me as the fastest 600m runner
