If you went to high school, then why not compare your numbers to the school records?
FWIW, your time is about the same as mine when I first ran track in high school (14 yrs old). I was one of the slower sprinters on my track squad, but was faster than all but one of the running backs and receivers who played football. So I switched to football instead the next year.
If you like sprinting, and like the idea of competing, maybe consider a sport that will allow you to use your relative speed advantage without absolute speed being the primary goal.
