Answer 1

practice starts, but also keep doing speedwork or whatever you have been doing. Just do less intervals than usual with shorter rest times.

Yes you can improve speed in a week.

Im not sure what to eat (I dont really worry about that when i train) but for these short races what you eat is not very important. Just make sure you drink alot of water. I personally beleive that plain old fashioned water beats any other type of drink when it comes to getting hydrated before a race.

Good Luck.
