Week 2-

1 day Treadmill hill speed intervals

2 days 40m sprints x10 ( walk back )

Week 3-

1 Day treadmill cardio run

2 days 100m x 4 ( jog 20m, sprint 60,m jog 20m )

Week 4-

1 Day treadmill sprint intervals

2 days 100m x4 ( Jog 10, sprint 80, jog 10 )

Week 5-

1 Day treadmill cardio run

2 days 100m sprint immediately after- 200 then 400 then 800 and repeat once

Answer 1

point one don't run every day,give your body time to recover.if you looking for overall fitness and stamina your routine is good, but you can mix it up a bit with some gym work cross trainers like bike/rowing,swimming to stop you getting bored and weights to build core strength. try also doing some cross country running 5 to 8 miles to build endurance

Answer 2

man..... its too heavy!!

Answer 3

your sprinting routine is great.

make sure youre pushing yourslef really hard durring your workouts and you will gain speed and endurance ( from the cardio runs) in no time.

Answer 4

I would cut out the treadmill altogether, it is so unlike real running

Answer 5

its an ok workout. It will help keep you in shpae but if you honestly want to get faster you need to up your sprint workload.

My team does at least tripple your work load for sprints in order to get faster. 400m total of sprints, as you have planned, will not be enough to actually work your body. you will not work your lactic threshhold, which you need to do, and you will not get much of a cardio workout.

Those who say it is to heavy, dont know about running for speed. I run everyday 5 miles. Running is the only thing you can do daily and be ok to do it again day after day.

The schedule is good, but i would suggest a little more work during your actual workouts.

only do the speed work twice a week though, and have long distance running three days a week, treadmil or outside, which will build your endurance.

Just keep up the work, your schedule is good, and with some fine tuning, you will be fast in no time.

Answer 6

Your routine sounds pretty great to me.  You have good elements that help you work on your speed, as well as your endurance.  I have a suggestion, though.  Have you tried doing 40s on bungee cords?  My 4x400 relay team improved tremendously by doing bungees everyday after our full workout.  It helps your legs adapt to turning quickly!
