for a 13 year old its good. once you hit highschool the best should be doing 11-11.5, sometimes sub 11.

Its a great time, and great improvement. In my first year of track I got my time froma 14.7 to a 13 flat. Keep it up.

Answer 5

Hey man you're doin great to be 13. keep trainin and maybe you'll be great one day

Answer 6

An excellent time. I'm not sure where you live, but in the US that time would be nearly good enough to qualify you for the junior olympics. Follow the link below to look at last year's results. Lists of top performers in other countries can be found on the internet as well. I hope you have good coaching, and are finding meets in which you can test your skills against other top athletes your age. It sounds like you have a bright future in the sport. Good luck.

Answer 7

in my country (NZ) 12 year olds are running 11.90s and 13 year olds are running 11.8..

our fastest 15 year old is running 10.91 in the 100m and 47.79 in the 400m...

so depending on what country u live in, u may be good.
