I run slow!!!?

Question

I am 5'4 110 pounds and 14 and I run so slow, the slowest in the class, and I really want to get fast and prove everyone wrong over the summer, please help!

Answer 1

jump rope alot...buy like a speed rope...it increases your stamina..alot! i do 1000 jumps everyday before going to sleep....sounds alot but very easy with a speed rope...because ur jumping at top speed...but i dont do it constantly..i trip a couple of times on the way...

well anyways...run....push yourself harder and harder everyday...make a goal...a realistic goal...then beat it...(notice how i didnt say IF), then set a new goal..and do the same thing...

hope i helped..

Answer 2

Practice every day. and while you run start off slow then get fast the get slow then get fast . it works really good

Answer 3

run for like 30-40 min ever other day and you will get faster and do that at what ever pace you can but not walking

Answer 4

t's ok, everybody has to start somewhere. First off don't be in too big of a hurry to get faster, it's an easy way to injure yourself. Now the pros do speedwork/weight training once a week. Weight training is pretty self explanatory, but speedwork involves short but fast repetitions.

Best way is to find a track and either do 100m or a full lap(quarter mile). Run at about 75-90% of top speed for each rep, then rest. This not only builds muscles for speed, but improves your form and your lung capacity. Good luck!

Answer 5

Run with music on with your eyes closed.  That's what I do.

Answer 6

run accerations(accelerate while you run) then jump rope alot
