Poster: youth and talent...
Subject: RE: My goal of sub 4:00 1500-I will not stop until I reach my goal.
Body:

Your PRs show us you are not naturally strong aerobically,

PRs:
800-2:00.56(last spring)
1500-4:16(last spring)
mile-4:40(last spring)
5k-16:22(this fall)
10k-36:00(this fall)
half marathon-1:17:30(this fall)

So you will not get to sub-4:00 for 1500m if you do not improve your 800m time to 1:56 or so. Work on that before working on endurance/tempo/stamina. That is easy to do, working on speed is not.

So, aim for 400m in ~52s, and 800m in ~1:56-1:57. Then come back and work on your 1500m time.

You do not give the impression you know what you are doing, and you are not going to learn from a few posts on a message board. Find a coach who has experience, tell him you want 52/1:56 and go from there.

Good luck.
