What would you say is a respectable 800m time for a 14 year old male?

Sub 2:20
3:08.74- that would put you right with Duane Solomon, former U.S. Champion and almost Olympic medal winner. Good luck!
sub-2:20 is pretty good. Hard to tell with the 800 though because a lot of boys make a big jump in their 400/800 ability towards the end of high school as they mature.
for example, my pr progression was
8th grade- 2:22
Freshman- 2:16
Sophomore- 2:07
Junior- 2:01
Senior- 1:54
Thanks
