800 / 100 = 8
800 meters is just under 1/2 of a mile.
1:45 or lower
Runners like to eat a heavy carb diet before they have a race to run, they do not eat dairy because it is really hard to digest. Right before a race lots of runners like to eat bananas so they will not get leg cramps.
It is correctly called the 4x800 meter relay. It's when 4 runners each take turns running the 800 meter in a race (two laps around the track) by using a baton to pass to each other.
if you are running on a regular highschool track which is about 400meters then (if you do the math) 2 laps around the track is an 800m race
I consider an 800 middle distance and the mile distance. Some however would argue that the mile is middle distance so it depends on what you want to call it but they are definitly not sprinting.
