Do I have a chance to run track in college?


Question:I only run sprints and hurdles, my coach wants me to try high jump next season. My times are:
110m High Hurdles: 16.1 seconds
300m Inter Hurdles: 43.1 seconds
100m Dash: Around 11.8 seconds (only run in relay)
200m Dash: Around 23.9 seconds (rarely run it)
400m Dash: Roughly 54 seconds (only in relay)

Right now I am a sophomore in high school and am really hoping to get all of those times down by next season. I really would like to know what I need to get my times to so I can run in college. Thanks

What is the best way to get your cardio up, i have to run a mile in 2 weeks right now im 2 mins off.?

There are different divisions in college. You can get into a div 2 school easier than a div 1 school. If your times are low 14 in the 110 hurdles or under 40 in the 300 hurdles you have a good chance. Remember that full ride scholarships are limited in track. The more usefull you are the better chances you have of getting a ride into school.

Has anyone ran in Puma running shoes lately? How do they rate compared to Asics/Brooks, etc?

you should check with the colleges. some have higher standards than others. right now try making your league's final and then go for state finals. if you make it in the finals you definetely have a chance running in college. good luck.

Are my times good and how much can they improve with a year os Cross Country?

You have a chance of running as a walk on, but you won't get a scholarship with those times. Our sophomore 400m runner runs 50.6. Your 110m HH time isn't too bad though, if you improve then scouts might ask you to walk on to their team with a possible scholarship the following years. Don't even worry about your times right now, just train; and if colleges think you're good enough then the scouts will do their job and let you know.
