You should train your self to be able to full out sprint the whole 200m as if it were a 100m dash.

I'm on my high schools track team so I'll try to help you out.

-First off you need a lot more then a month to shape up and get in tone.

Remember you don't need a side walk to jog, go to a park or jog on the side of the street

------->TRAINING<-------

-->Warm up

-Start as soon as possible

-Start of with your jog around the block for a warm up

-Stretch...look up some should takes about 20-25 mins

-Do drills...(high knees, heel kicks, etc. look some up) [should take about 15 mins]

-->Workout

- Seems like your a sprinter you need to ask your coach to set up workout schedule or you can make your own. For example (something soft since you’re starting up).

-Run 5, 100m at 70% of your maximum intensity, with a recovery time of 3min

-Run 8, 80m, at 70% of your maximum intensity, with a recovery time of 2:30 min

-Run 6, 60m at 70% of your maximum intensity, with a recovery time of the time it takes you to walk back to you're starting position

This is just an example of  one work out you can add different distances and change intensities....Remember recovery time in between sprints

-->Cool Down

- After you main work out jog a cool down...about 600m jog

Then your work out is done.

You should practice 5 days a week for 1:30 mins to 2 hrs.

Eat well and healthy make sure you have your sugars, and your hydrated, you don't want to crash out.

Also do you run with your legs high and if so does that help?

Yes, it does. Try to run up right, knees up ward, on your toes, drills will break down the mechanics of your sprint.
