  1. 100 meters is the length of a standard soccer (football) field’s penalty box, roughly 1 football field goalpost to goalpost is around 100 meters.

    To give some everyday context:

    It’s a bit longer than a football (American) field’s playing area, which is 91.4 meters (100 yards).

    About the distance you’d cover in a quick 12–15 second sprint for a trained runner.

    Roughly the length of a city block in many urban areas.

    So, it’s not super far, think of a brisk walk that takes about 1 to 1.5 minutes or a short sprint for athletes.
