Monday,Thursday: 4km tempo at 5.25-5.10 min miling, than 2-4x 120to 150 meter sprint with walking the remaining of the lap

Tuesday and Friday: 5x600m (60-90s rec) 1.45-1.38 than 5-10min rec 5x300m in spikes (60-90s) 45-40 sec

Wednesday and Sat.: 30-40 min jogs and a day off

Before racing season cut back the number of the 300 s to 3 or 4 and running them with very sort rest at race pace , and a 15 min rest before them .

Doing this schedule all year around.

What do you think is it good enoug to make a jump from1.49 to 1.47 ?

re: Pipedre

Is this one phase of the training or the whole thing?

re: Wawawewa

yes basicly one phase whole year, just before racing season doing the 300s with really short rest.

I think it covers all basis Threshold, Vo2 max, race specific intervals and longer sprints.

Not very many miles and too much hard running in my opinion.

re: Pipedre

Look up the sub 1:50 training thread, lots of good advice in there.

It really depends on if you’re a 400/8 guy or a 8/15 guy.

In the base phase however it’s pretty similar, short hill sprints, some 5k pace work, occasional threshold work/tempos.

Next phase is where it splits. 4/8 guys will want to have more emphasis on endurance, second priority is speed. Opposite for 8-15 guys.

Third phase combine the two
