So now that track season is over, is it possible to do this?

Question:this was my first year as a track runner and i'm a sophmore in highschool. i ran the 800 all season but it wasn't consistent. the fastest i got was 2:38 and the slowest was 2:50.

if i train all summer long and do cross country, is it possible for somebody (like me) to get the time down to about 2:10 in 6 months or so?

Absolutely, if you train all summer, and then complete a season of cross country next fall, you could easily run a PR of 2:10 for your junior year of track. Do you have a competent track and cross country coach who knows what he's doing? If yes, and you are commited to training, you can probably run sub 2:10. I ran 2:30s my freshman year and got down to 2:00 flat by my senior year. Go for it!
