Answer 1

one word: FAST!(:

Answer 2

Do track AND soccer.

Answer 3

If you don't want to do track, then you probably shouldn't, because what's the point of making yourself miserable at track meets?  It's you decision overall, and even if you choose soccer over track, there is a TON of running required so it's not like you are putting your running ability to waste.

Answer 4

I coach track and some of the best 800, 1600 runners were soccer players.

You already have endurance you just need to train to use your speed during a race, which is different than playing soccer.

I think your future is with track,  if you develop your ability and learn to race you have a college scholarship waiting for you.

Answer 5

keep running and playing soccer!!!
