Half Marathon Running

What is an ideal time for running a half marathon?
I am healthy and athletic. I want to run a half marathon in a competitive speed, but not too competitive to qualify for a regional or national level.
Half the people in a half marathon get there in about 2 hours.
A good time is around 1:30 to 1:40
Anything under 1:30 and you are going to be in the top 10% of runners generally
What is an ideal time for you? Not sure – depends how you are running at the moment but under 1:45 is good
