Round 2

I am still scoring the first round, but since it is my birthday I figured it would be a great time to post the next set of Olympics related questions!  Good luck!

1.  What is my fastest official mile time?  Closest guess gets 5 points, then 4, then 3...
2.  How many countries will participate in this year's Summer Olympics?
3.  Even though the Olympics are set in London, other cities in the UK will host events as well.  Name three other Olympic sites that will be used for the Summer Olympics this year.
4.  An outdoor track measures 84.39m on the straight parts and 115.611m for the curves.  These very precise measurements leave a difficult problem to solve.  Find the area inside of the track.  Assume that the curves are semicircles.
5.  Hurdles are generally set 13 meters from the starting line with 8.5 meters between hurdles and 10.5 meters from the last hurdle to the finish line.  If the hurdle race is 110 meters, how many hurdles do we need?
