Hello - I'll keep this short and sweet. I'm a junior in high school and just raced an 800. I went out with the lead pack @ 63 and then kicked home in 58 for a 2:01.2 win. I know these splits are far from optimal - if I paced it better does this indicate sub 2 fitness?
Yes. You can do it in your next race.
Wow, quite impressive to be able to run it that way. How many times have you run the 800 and what is your 400 time? Do you also run the 1500/1600?
Hi! My 400 is 54.7 raced the same day as that 800m, and my mile from indoors is technically 4:37 but my workouts nowadays indicate sub 4:26-4:24 fitness - I'll be racing the 1600 in 2 weeks, I'm excited.
Keep us updated!
You can break 2:00 this season! Believe it, and stay focused. Keep us posted

I would say you have improved substantially. You can definitely break two.
I would be very surprised if you didn't break 2 by end of the season
