winter training for (800-1500)

That seems very intense for winter training-3 interval/speed sessions a week?

For Monday, the 1000's, 400's and 100's are all seperate workouts right?

And what kind of times did you run last year/plan to run this year?

Yeah, that seems intense, but everybody's different. I would burn out from that in a few weeks, but my body's really sensitive. If you can handle that kind of training, all the power too you. But still, it's December, I would play it safe cause it would suck to own all your early season meets only too plateau later or worse get injured. Good Luck Though! It definitely means you want it bad if you're training now so Kudos to you.

word...

I wanna go under 152/sub 410 this year for the full. No monday the 400's 1,000's and the 100's are the same workout

3x1000m @ mile pace, 6x400m @ 800 pace 9x100m @ 400 pace

seems like a freaking intense workout. split that up into three and you still have 3 workouts ;)

that looks like february-march-april type training. you planning on peaking in january/february?

sounds like a lie to me

I dont see anyone completeing all that in one session. Thats 6000m of very intense running-

half at mile pace and half at 800m pace/400m pace.

I mean, a good workout would be the same distances and number of reps but the 1000s at 2mile pace, the 400s at mile pace and the 100's at 800pace. That would still be tough.

Another good workout that world class 800m men do is 4X400m at race pace with 2-3 minute recoveries. You want to do 6 of them in addition to the rest of it?

This workout is not physiologically possible. You will not be able to nail the 400's at 800m race pace after running almost 2miles in long reps at your mile race pace. World class runners would have trouble completing this workout, depending on the recoveries. I dont see how this workout is at all realistic.

You need more miles. If you want to run fast in the spring and summer you need to build a base.

Instead of all those sessions, add in a few more doubles and runs lasting over 60 minutes, but finish up on a track or flat surface and so long strides.

You also really need a treshold workout. You cant expect to run a successful 1500 without a great deal of work at threshold pace (i.e. workouts at 85% of max heart rate) for at least 20 minutes. Substitute those track sessions for some long tempo's, focus on the track when it gets warm out.
