jp the great,firstly with a name like that u must be arrogant.secondly u know well 2.05 is class as a 14 ear old.
It would be a national record in most countries for under 15.
i'm 14 my pr in the 800m is 2.16 but i've only raced in the 800m once and i'm far faster at 5k with a pr of 16.45
i ran a 2:03 @ 14 yrs old
kevin sullivan definately owns the 13-14 yr old 800m record.
1:53 is sick. Imagine being a college guy running 1:54ish and have a tiny 13 yr old whoop u.

Im 14 and i run a 2:03 im ranked 2nd in the nation as a 8th grader and look to go sub 1:55 next year and won middleschool state for ky and would have won varsity state with about a 1:54 but tripped with 250 meters to go in 2nd by a stride
Dang all those people saying they running 1:46 all you guys need to go to Olympic trials nick symmonds for the 800 ran 1:45.9 not saying he is the best in the world but he is pretty good so all you guys go to Olympic trials please
2:19 at
2:19 at 14. 2:01 at 16. Didn't have a great senior year. Didn't touch the 800 again until I was 23 and ran 1:58.
This is going to make me feel good!
14 1:58.9
15 1:58.1
16 1:53.6 (never ran faster than this)
This bit does not make me feel good!
From age 15 concentrated on 1500. Because I ran X Country pretty well when I went to University (age 18) I decided I was going to be a 5K runner and adopted a more high volume lower intensity training regime - and got injured and never really ran well, even over X Country when I thought I should be much stronger than before. When i was running well as a teenager I did not have a track to train on, ran a maximum of 50 miles week in winter (lots of hard 5-8 mile runs, fartleks, hills etc and did summer "track" sessions in the local park and round the perimeter of the local cricket field. All on grass, distances approximate but ending more or less every session on my knees.
Moral of all this? Fast times as a 14 year old guarantee nothing - but if you are running well at that age (and training seriously for this success) don't change the basic philosophy behind the training.

Was running 6-7 days per week from age of 14. Best event was 1500m
I am 11 years old and I just had my track meet. For 60m sprint I got 6.28, 400m 2:10 and for my 800m I got 2:02. Do you think I should become a professional runner?
1:58.9.
Makes me feel quite pleased with myself!
But it's true; meaningless unless backed up with a good career as an adult!

I'm not 14 but I'll try giving you a good idea where you could be at 14. I haven't fully grown yet and I'm 13 year old boy running 2:25 ( I turned 13 a week ago) I'm 5'1" and 88lbs. Hope this helped
P.S. how fast did you run at 13 years of age?
Btw, I'm ranked 3rd in my province
2:21 at 14. Maybe 5'5, 115 pounds.
1:55 at 20, 6'1 150 pounds.
tl;dr for this thread: 14 year olds have radically different levels of physical development.
