  1. i run a 6 minute mile in 8th grade i just jog without stopping if i ran i could prolly get 5 something u just gotta have endurance bike riding and just running helps


  2. I am a very dedicated distance runner, so hopefully I have some good input here.. I don't know what you already run on a daily basis, but here is my suggestion:

    MON: 5 miles moderate pace

    TUES: Leg speed work: 800 at your 2 mile goal pace, 600 at your mile pace, 400 at your 800 pace, and two 200's full out. Then repeat the whole work out.

    WED: 6-7 miles easy pace

    THURSDAY: 3-4 miles easy

    FRIDAY: (if you aren't racing) Two miles timed full out.

    SAT: 7-9 miles easy to moderate pace.

    SUN: off

    I don't know what kind of shape you are in, but you should work into it. If you aren't used to that many miles, then you can edit the scedule to fit your abililty. Do enough to challenge yourself, but not so much to get injured.  You can also edit the schedule to accommodate races or injuries. If you do feel strained or sore, try cross training in the pool or on a bike. Also, lift 2-3 times a week. Good luck! Hope this works! :)

  3. um you should just run really2+ fast you just got to run run till you drop dead

  4. give up.... cause your body can't legally go that fast

  5. I have been running for 8 years now and would recommend the following:

    I would strengthen the core: calves, quads, hams, back and abdominal (the "six pack" muscles along with the obleks), chest and arms. But when strengthening these muscles, I would focus more on the muscle endurance not the muscle bulk. For more advice for this, I would consult with a personal trainer. For the running part, I would stay flexible as it helps/contributes to your balance (so do the muscles in your core) but also helps prevent some injuries like pulled muscles and shin splints. Also, I would try to make up a schedule where you can run for X amount of days and try to have a long run. I would start off slowly, running about 2-3 miles per run for the first week and increase my mileage per week. Make sure you have the following: a good diet, hydration, sleep, a good sense on how to take care of your body, and sleep. Good Luck!!!

  6. sprinting hard and running hard puch your self dont give in to the pain

  7. Run three miles a day, mix it up go flats one day then hills the next.  then when your done go to a track (if you have one near you) and run a pace lap.  A pace lap is the last lap of a race, and should be your fastest, it will help you get in shape.
