Getting lower on Hurdles 110 m (track)?

don't jump over the hurdles.  Just lift your legs and bend at the waist to clear them.  Remember that you are slowing down when in the air so spend as little time there as possible.

750-850 depending on track.

Hey! I am in track as well. Sure, I am kinda fast...but not super fast. \nIf I were you I would stay after practice and do more running. Be sure to drink lots of aqua as well! Even if your sides hurt keep running. That way you will build endurance. \nI sure hope you improve.

I think you are right; it isn't fair. For distance races you are probably going to pass people on the curve anyway but it DOES matter like you said. I think it matters a lot in the 4 by 4. I always hated running the 2nd leg because I would have to run a couple extra feet and it would add on to my time :(. But just try not to worry about it because you are going to end up running a few extra feet anyways if you want to pass someone. God luck in track!

One simple/cheap way of doing a 40 is by timing the run with a stopwatch. Set up 2 sets of cones 40 yards a part. Have a person start at one end, wait for him to begin then start the clock and end it when he is across the second set of cones. A more sophisticated way of doing the 40 is with a digital timing system like the one Sparq makes. Eastbay has it, the link is below. It's pretty expensive however.

no one has given you a good answer yet so here goes...fine a track close to your home and get a set of rules for the lowest class at that track.it will cost less to run in this class and give you some experience.then you can move up as you get better....

Run 600s or 800s to help build your endurance so you'll be able to go hard for te majority of the meet. Work on having a good stride for the back stretch after you come out digging hard...be motivated and happy

Coming out of the blocks you should be thinking about smoothly accelerating to your cruising speed.  It's not possible for a human to sprint all out for an entire 200. You have to get into what some coaches call "float" -- running "fast but relaxed -- through the middle of the race.\n\nA word on technique. When you are running the curve, you want to swing your left arm less than you normally would and swing you right hand across your chest towards your left shoulder. That action will help you hold the curve.

If you are running a fixed distance the only way you can get a better time is to run faster.  You are stuck with the equation that time equals distance divided by speed.  So, whatever you can do to increase your speed will lower the time it takes.

The trick is to keep your jump as much like a regular stride as possible, so that you are almost stepping over the hurdles instead of jumping them.  Kick your lead foot straight out ahead of you and over the hurdle, reaching the same side hand towards your extended foot.  Your following leg should bend at the knee and flex out to the side from your hip, so the leg is even with your hips, tucked up to the side to make it over the hurdle.  You should land in stride on your lead foot and untuck your following leg to throw it forward into your next stride -- which may be another hurdle, depending on the event.  You can practice by just stepping over some low obstacles, making sure you get your form right, then gradually increasing the height until you're jumping over things on the run.  When you break out the actual hurdles, I'd recommmend practicing on the grass at first, since you may take a few tumbles until you get your form right and your stride timed.  Good luck.

What event do you do?\nYou can't just jump into hill runs, you have to build your endyurance up, most people who are doing hill runs right ow already did cross country or have 1st phase periodization completed.\n\n1st things. Hill running\naim for a "bouncy" style, good knee lift and maximum range of movement in the ankle.drive hard, pushing upwards with the toes, flexing the ankle as much as possible, landing on the front part of the foot and then letting the heel come down below the level of the toes as the weight is taken. This stretches the calf muscles upwards and downwards as much as possible and applies resistance which overtime will improve your power and elasticity. look straight ahead as you run (not at their feet) and ensure your neck, shoulders and arms are free of tension. Hill work results in the calf muscles learning to contract more quickly and thereby generating work at a higher rate, they become more powerful. The calf muscle achieves this by using more muscle fibres, around two or three times as if running on the flat. The "bouncy" action also improves the power of the quads as they provide the high knee lift that is required.when competing in your sport/event, it can mean higher running speeds and shorter footstrike times.\n\nHill workouts\nShort hill is one which takes no more that 30 seconds to run up and has an inclination between 5 and 15 degrees gradient. The energy source on short hills is entirely anaerobic. You should focus on a running technique which has vigorous arm drive and high knee lift, with the hips kept high, so you are 'running tall', not leaning forwards. 8 to 10 repetitions over 50 metres (sprinters and hurdlers) \n\nMedium hill is one which takes between 30 to 90 seconds to run up. This is the length of hill is a good distance for the middle-distance runner, because it combines the benefits of the short hills with the stresses on local muscular endurance and tolerance of lactic acid. \n\n Long hill is one which takes from 90 seconds to three minutes plus. most of the energy comes from aerobic sources, but if parts of the hill are steep and you are running them hard, there will still be an accumulation of blood lactate. There will be local muscular fatigue in the leg muscles, and possibly in the abdominal muscles too.\n\nStrength development\nSession 1\nNeed a hill with a slope of approx 10% and a length of 200 metres to 400 metres \nRun up at approx 5km pace with rapid stride rate and good knee lift \nRecovery. jog back down \nStart with 2 sets of 4 repetitions and gradually increase over time \n\nSession 2\nNeed a hill with a slope of approx 5% and a length of 1km \nRun up at approx 10km pace with rapid stride rate and good knee lift \nRecovery. jog back down \nStart with 3 or 4 repetitions and gradually increase over time \n\n2nd thing. \nSprinting, again depending on event I could give you specific workouts but I'm only guessing here.\n\nFlexibility and a correct warm up will affect stride length and frequency (strike rate). \n100 metres 10 × 30 metres at race pace from blocks with full recovery\n3 to 4 × 80 metres at race pace with full recovery \n\n400 metres 5 × 200 metres at goal race pace with 10 seconds recovery\n4 × 400 metres at 2 to 3 seconds faster than current race pace with 2 minutes recovery \n\nHope this helps if you need more or can give me more specific info email me.

Depends on the track. Most allow you to use Bute and/or Lasix.

rest, since track started a few days ago I would rest up a bit. If you run daily your legs will always hurt because they are not getting rested. run for 2 days, take a day off....it will keep you in good shape but not completely wear you out.\nThe 400 is good but its over way too quick, much better at 800, if you have good stamana it'll help pass lots of people in the 2nd half of the race (ask you coach for some streches or look them up on the net, too hard to explain here)

Take a breather between runs.  You might be causing oxygen debt, in other words you may be using too much energy at a time so your muscles aren't regulating their chemicals fast enough, depriving your legs. I'd say try cutting down the amount of mileage, or try running every other day to every two days.  But you don't want wait too long between, you don't want any lactic acid build up either.  That's why I think a shorter run on a regular schedule would work best for you.

run a track backwards...builds butt muscles for leaping

reduce your speed and distance, increase them gradually\nincrease 1km every 2 weeks\ndont run on hard surfaces like concrete/asphalt...you should prefer running tracks/mud/grass\nif your shoes are old, the padding effect will be very low...get new ones\nice your shins after running\ndont strain yourself
