Tomorrow at school we are running the mile. I have ran in preparation for it, so don't say practice, it's tomorrow, but any stretches I should do anything I should or shouldn't eat, technique, tips etc. Thanks

How to get a faster mile time?
in
Im currently a freshman and my fastest mile is a 5:22. I would like to get my mile below a five by the time I am a senior. One problem that I have is a short stride. Any suggestions on what to do during the summer to improve my time and also fix my stride?
Answer:
You are already a really fast runner, but you can search the internet for more help on running posture, and to help fix those strides. You can also try doing short sprints, accelerations, those sprint half a lap-jog slowly the other half of the lap things, and going on long distance runs. Train yourself in different ways, and keep up that training! Good luck!
How to get faster at running?
in
I weigh 195lbs slightly chubby haha and i run a 61.2 on the 400m relay. Are there anytips i should do to get a faster time?
Answer:
I run track and at the beginning of the season I ran a 65 on the 400, but now only a couple meets in, I already run a 56. I almost dropped 10 seconds! What I've been doing was a track workout, my coach advised me to go to the track and run a 400 normal speed, then a 200 jog, 200 sprint, 400 jog. Quick break, then give it all I have in a 100 sprint followed by a 200 jog, 400 mid-pace, followed by 200 sprint. I know it sounds like a lot, but in total it's only a mile and a half! Just do this everyday for a while and focus on strengthening your legs on somedays, by taking off and doing calf exercises. This can be a lot of strain on a body, so once your body begins to get sore take a day off, but don't be too generous with days off. It's good to be sore sometimes! Hope it helped:)
How to I increase my stamina while running?
in
I want to start running because I am like 20- 30 pounds overweight, but whenever I run out of breath really fast. My sister tells me that its because I breathe in with my mouth instead of my nose. I try it but it is too hard. Any idea on how I can increase my stamina.
Answer:
First of all breath in through your nose and out through your mouth. Second, for building stamina you have to build up your distances. Begin by running at a comfortable pace and distance and then slowly build up by going slightly faster and longer. Going longer is more important than the speed, so don't worry about your time. Even running for 20 minutes a day can greatly improve your running ability and gets you in shape. Good luck!
Also make sure you have proper running shoes.
How to get rid of stomach cramps while running long distance?
in
When I'm running long distance I run 2 1/2 laps and then a cramp comes from the bottom side of my stomach and cause me to lower my speed and sometimes even walk. Also, often the inside of my mouth becomes really dry. How do I get rid of the cramps and whats wrong with my breathing?
Answer:
Don't eat at least 1 hour before running long distance. Stretch at least every 5 minutes and keep going. This will definitely hurt, but as long as you keep hydrated before and after, you should be fine. Try running on a treadmill if it keeps continuing.

How to run a mile in seven minutes?
in
So my current time is like ten minutes and I need to get it down to seven to make my varsity soccer team. Tryouts are in August and it's late March. I have access to a treadmill, and a good 2/3 mile trail. Any training tips would be amazing and greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Answer:
Since you have a treadmill the next thing to do is to set short term goals. You can now run a 10 minute mile. Break down the mile into 4ths. What I mean by this is start off running 1/4 mile in roughly two minutes. This is close to being on pace with a 7 minute mile. Then start increasing the distance that you run while staying on track with a timer. Eventually you will be at 3/4 mile in 5.25 minutes, then the entire mile in 7 minutes. Good Luck
