Subject: RE: Sub 1:50 800m Training
Body:

There has been a lot talk in previous threads. The brief summary
1) do some quality aerobic work (3/5k intervals, tempo workouts).
2) do strength/basic speed workouts (plyometrics, weights, short sprints, hills,...)
3) Work on race pace (200-400 with long rests)
4) When racing season comes around do some really hard anaerobic sessions (200-600 with shorter rests)

How you mix these depends on your age and if you are a 400m guy or an 1500m guy. If your a 1500m guy you focus on a lot more aerobic work. If your a sprinter it is more of the strength stuff.

Very interested in this also. There's been talk on here recently about how fast the prerequisite 200/400 ability is, but little talk of how to get there.

I'm especially interested in seeing if/how people do lactate threshold work in the off season, ie: during XC.
