How long should it take to run one-fourth mile? How should you increase Stamina?
A decent time for this is the high 60s. The 400 is one of the hardest races in track and field. It's a looooooong sprint and it's not easy to pace.
My suggestion would be to run intervals. These will make you faster overall. For example:
Sprint a 200 at 80-90% (the 200 will help with your out and out sprinting)
~walk a lap to recover
Sprint a 300 at 80-90% (this gives your body a feel for almost the whole thing)
~walk a lap to recover
Sprint a 400 at 80-90% (this is the real deal)
~walk a lap to recover
Sprint a 300 at 80-90% again
~walk a lap to recover
Sprint a 200 at 80-90% again
~walk a lap to recover
Another thing I would suggest is continuous intervals or CIs. These will help with your stamina. They're pretty much the same as intervals, but you don't take the walking rest. You jog. For example:
Run a 600 (that's a lap + a 200) at 60-70%
~slow to 45-50% and jog an entire lap
Repeat this about 5 times...it keeps your heart rate up and when it's time to run the race, you will be faster and you will be able to hang in there. After doing these, the 400 will feel like a piece of cake.
Just a side note, NEVER do these workouts on the same day. They are both intense in their own way...they work specific things in your body and should not be coupled together.
Good luck!
Reply:about 90 seconds
Reply:1/4 of a mile is one track lap so that should be 60 secs for a good time.to get good stamina you gotta run some miles like 3 or 4.if you run more youll increase your stamina so when you run a short distance it will be nothing. tell me if you need more help
Reply:depends on how fast you are. I knew a 14 year old that can run 1/4 mile in under 59 seconds.
if youre into running, an 6:00 miler would do the 1/4 mile in 1:30.
if you like casual jogs @ 10:00 mile, then itll be 2:30
you can increase stamina by running the distance 5-6X weekly, increasing the distance by 1/4 mile each time.
Reply:To improve your stamina you need to undertake cardiovascular exercise. Most girls at my school run it in about a 45 seconds guys are about the same
Reply:I am a BIG runner and i run a mile fast. My best is 5:59. To increase stamina I run Hills Right after school. A one fourth mile could take about 90 to 130 seconds for a good runner.
Reply:my 15 year old sister got about 65 seconds, but anywhere below 70 seconds would be good. the world record is something like 45 seconds i think.
Reply:90 sec. if you are just training, do not try to run a pr when you are training, i am a distance runner so i believe that short distances do nothing for sramina
Reply:in football we had to do it in 65 for junior high. i can in 60 seconds
Reply:70 seconds is about a 8 out of 10
65 seconds 7-10
60 9-10
under 60 is a 10-10
Reply:Ladies typically run about 10-16 minutes to a mile...so that should about 2.5 - 4 minutes mile, although my ex-GF used to run that for 5 minutes.
Reply:It really depends on what your looking for? Are you planning to run on the track team this season? A good time for a girl is about 65 seconds or less if you are competing!! Also run about 30 minutes a day to get a base if you are just starting out!! Run faster the next week and so on!! Do a speed work at least once a week on the track 800's 400's 200's and 100's. Hill repeats work well too!!
Reply:Well I am 23 and I run two miles under 15 minutes.
Reply:75second and under is fine. am 15 and runs 65 seconds.
Reply:Well i've been running in track since i was in 8th grade. So it should take a 14-15 year old girl to do it in the low or mid 70's. How you could increase your stamina is by strengthening your hamstrings and your arms.
Reply:increasing stamina doesnt means you have to run long distance.. you can run fast short distance, it really increases your stamina.. but you get tired soon if you are lack of stamina..
