What is the average 400m time for a girl?

How do I improve my 400m time?

What’s the best 400m time for high school runners?

The holy grail of high school 400 runners is a time that starts with a 4. By 16–17 I was consistently running 50s but I could never get a 4-something. Interval training is the way to go. Run your fastest 200, then walk 200. Repeat, repeat and repeat again until it gets easier. Then break down your 400 races into 4 -100s or 2–200s.
