How fast can you run for 100 meters?

IT has been heck of a long time since I sprinted. The last time I measured, it took almost a minute to finish the 100 meter sprint. And that was like donkey years ago. I wonder how long it would take me now. Having to lug a big pot belly around, I do not think I can still meet the one minute mark. I may try to clock myself this week end if I can get my lazy butt out of bed to go running.

Hi youless! Oh no, i wouldn't even finish the 100 meters. haha..And if ever I do, I am not sure how much time it will take me before I get to the finish line. haha.. Take care always..God Bless!

Actually, I haven't done that in quite some time, I am more a 10Km runner. but I remember when I was younger I was around 14 secs (this for a 14 year old was quite good)

I'm 47 years old and I'm out of shape, I think I can do 100 meters taking a couple of time outs, I guess I'd finish in a couple of minutes. Even when I was in my best shape and played soccer I wasn't a fast runner, so I don't think I ever did it in less than 15 seconds.

how fast? haha , i don't know. but how slow, i can tell---- the last one.

So a bunch of friends of mine and I are distance runners, so we cannot sprint really fast. Mainly, our problem is not being able to accelerate at all. I remember my time was something in the high 13 seconds or low 14 seconds, which I guess is not super bad for only running races that are like 6 miles or longer now.

hee..heee..hee... cant imagine myself running.. maybe.. just jogging.. but never running in race.. so.. i wont trouble anyone to time me 'running' a 100m.

I see no reason whatsoever to risk heat stroke to test my speed when i already know what it is, SLOW! LOL
