What is the average time for the 100 yard dash?

Answer by  CDix (64)

The average time for someone to complete the 100 yard dash is about 20 seconds. Now, for someone young and in good physical shape expect to finish the dash in about only 12 to 13 seconds. Some high school students can do the 100 meter in about 9-10 seconds. Try to beat that one.

In high school track invitationals, boys 11 seconds will probably give you a very good rank. For girls, anywhere from 12-low 13 seconds is very respectable. I'd say average girls times would be 15.5, because I run a 14.1 and normally get second place at my smaller meets

This race can be run on average in 12 to 13 seconds by a varsity level athlete and 10 to 11 seconds by a professional athlete.

The average time for the 100 yard dash for a young adult in good physical condition is twelve to fifteen seconds. The world record is held by Wykoff at 9. 4 seconds, one fifth of a second faster than the previous record. That would be quite the time for you to beat.
