A mile on a standard high school track is usually 4 laps in the inside lane. Civic Memorial High School’s track appears to be a regular high school venue, so 4 laps is the best answer unless that specific track has an unusual layout.

Quick note

  • If you run in an outer lane, it takes a little more than 4 laps to equal a mile.
  • If you want exact mileage for a workout, the lane matters.

Simple rule

  • 1 lap = 400 meters on a standard track.
  • 4 laps = 1600 meters, which is very close to 1 mile.

Civic Memorial

Civic Memorial High School is listed as a track venue in Bethalto, Illinois, but the listing I found does not provide a special lap-distance exception for that track. So for most practical purposes, 4 laps = about 1 mile there too.

TL;DR: 4 laps.
