What should i run?

Question

okay so im a freshman girl and i know i wanna run the 800 and mile but cant decide if i should also run the 2 mile or the 400....

3200- 14.33

400- 1.11

Answer 1

after you race the 800 and the 1600, decide which you like better, the faster 800 or the longer 1600, and depending on your preference and your times, choose either another long race (3200)or another sprinting race (400)

Answer 2

I ran both the 800 and mile in high school, and I personally hated the 2 mile. I agree with the last post. You really need to see which you like better: the faster short races or the longer endurance based races. It might take a while to figure out which you like best, so try them out now while you are a freshman.

I've always viewed the 400 as the longest sprint event,  and the 2 mile as the shortest endurance race. Have fun and give it 110% which-ever you choose.

Answer 3

i run cross country for my highschool. our races are 5 kilometers(3.1 miles) so i'd say go for the two mile. anyone can sprint but it takes endurance and hard training to make it long distance. good luck with whatever you choose
