Answer 1

yes good luck

Answer 2

prayer does work miracles, but you have to hold up on your end too, to get better results. either way, good luck, go hard and i'll pray for you (:

remember hard work pays off!

[ohhh and btw if it helps, while running, to keep your mind off of the pain, replay a movie in your head, or sing a song in your mind. what i usually do is reward myself at the end of the week with like candy, or a cupcake, or a new outfit, and while i'm running, i just keep saying to myself  "keep running and you get a cupcake!" rofl (;]  

Answer 3

yes! Go out there and run like the wind! I believe a person can do anything they set their mind to. So go out there have run and run fast!!

Good Luck!!!!

Answer 4

sure. you can do it!!! just push yourself. do NOT let yourself walk.  just push push push!! you wont die, you can totally get that 8-minute mile.  just run your hardest and dont stop until you get to the finish line

Answer 5

I pray that as you do your best God will help you to run your best in the Name of Jesus.

Answer 7

in my experience(& of my friends from other schools) you really dont have to make it under 8 minutes to make the team(unless your school is megasuper sompetetive). Volleyball is really not  a running sport(long runs like a mile are slow twitch muscles- vball uses fast twitch muscles :kinda complicated to explain but yeah,).

When my team ran it last yr I beat all but 2 or 3 of the varsity players/starters and i only was on jv.

as long you give it your all and DONT STOP RUNNING- thats all the coach cares about.

a tip::

take your ipod and listen to some upbeat/fast songs as you run, it keeps your mind off the distance and you end up running faster to the beat of the music(when we  ran it the second time a bunch of kids had ipods and dropped their times almost a minute) lol

oh- and take a pr of running shoes w/ you.

b/c vball shoes arent the best to run in.:]

good luck and my prayers.:]

Answer 8

I personally don't understand why so many schools make volleyball players run to test their skills. Sprints, yes. But long distance running? Not very important in volleyball.

But never the less, I will pray for you and I hope you make the team! Good luck and give it 1 million percent!
