Who I Am...

Hey, My name is Lili and I am finally 16. I run Cross Country and Track and Field. I love running, I feel empty when I don't run, I love to ride ATV's.

Track Season

Track Season is starting, and most Track Runners are preparing.

I was wondering, What type of training should you do in order to prepare yourself for the 1600m and 800m ?

My philosophy on mileage for 1600/800 runners is that it should be less per week than XC runners but should be run at a faster pace. For example, an easy run for a long distance (5K/10K) runner would probably consist of 8 miles at about 7 minute pace while that for a middle distancer would be something like 5 miles at 6:30 pace.

To answer your one-question blog, yes you should have designated complete-rest day where you do NOTHING at all related to running.
