How can I run faster?

How can i run a faster 800m (track and field)?

  • i love to run track. i happen to run 400m , 800m ,1000. how can i run a faster 800m run ?? AlsO triple jump tips.

  • Answer:

    I am an 800 runner. If you are naturally fast at the 400 (under 60), then you are a speed runner. Focus on running 200's, 300's, 400's, and 600's mixed in with some 1000's and 1200's. If you are not really fast in the 400 (like me), you need to rely more on endurance. Run the same things, but focus more on the 1000's and 1200's. Hope this helps :)

to run a good 800, you need both speed and endurance. Speed, for the most part, can only be improved to a limit. Endurance is needed to carry your speed the limit of the race. Endurance, unlike speed, can be improved vastly. Like a previous poster said, that requires running a lot. Assuming that you are not running that much mileage now, thats what you need to start doing. Start by running 15-20 minutes continuously a day, gradually bumping it up slowly to 40 minutes in a few weeks or couple months. During this time, do some strides (100ish meter controlled, relaxed run at 85-90% max effort) to keep up your speed. The reason endurance is worked on before speed is that too much speed burns you out and makes you stale. After you have a good endurance base, work on speed. Like another previous poster said, run the 800. But this does not necessarily mean running the 800, it means 800 pace. Do 200s-500s at your goal 800 pace to get used to feeling that pace. Set a goal race and goal time. Then go out and race!

I run longer distances, but we have some pretty good 800 runners on our team. First, you should run between 7-8 miles a day. (thats what our top 800 runners do) Then you should do interval training; like 200's and 400's. Lastly, you should do arobic threshold running. This is running at about 87% of your max for a given period of time. (like 1 or 2 miles) After a couple of weeks of this training, you should be good to go.

i train for football which is mainly short sprints but the way i do is just short sprints then jog and repeat also do some plyometric drills with pylons and stairs unless you wanna buy a kit one drill is hope up 2+ steps and jump one step down there are step blocks in gyms if you dont feel safe using normal steps

To increase your velocity, you must run the 800 over and over and over. It will be hard but it will work. Also, try this technique my track coach used, run a total of 8 200m. Each around 30-40 seconds depending on how fastt you are. Take about a 30 second break in between the 200's. Run forest run! :D

I run the 800m and 400m too. I find that running in higher elevations (especially if you live somewhere thats low in elevation) really can improve your running because you'll need less oxygen cuz ur hearts used to having less and u'll have more energy. Also, just sprinting up hills should help u go faster, at least for the 400m. hope that helps
