Probably done by an 11 year old who is running away from an over-zealous parent.

If your only goal is improving your 40 time, concentrate strictly on running sprints. The resistance band mentioned above is a good idea, but there are other ways also. First, you can use a weighted vest when you run, and it should help you some. The best method I've seen is using a runners parachute. If you haven't seen one, it is a small parachute attached to a harness that you wear on you chest/back when you run. When you take off, the wind catches the parachute which causes heavy drag/resistance. It operates on a similar principle to the resistance hose, but it doesn't have the limitations that come with tieing yourself to something. I had a couple friends who used them in high school, and they had real nice 40 times (4.3 - 4.5). Of course, they had natural speed to start with, but they used to train with the parachute almost every day. Hope it helps you.

Fartleks work wonders.  Warm up run (5-10 min) followed by (1) 200m sprint, (2) 400m at 5k pace [repeat 6-10 times] then cool down.

Track. With my daughter and friends. My friends sometimes think that an old man like me can't keep up. He, He! I do the 10 yrd dash, the 2's and 400's and sometimes i just smoke'm for the laugh. My daughter she loves the comp. She's like her old man. She thinks a challenge is a good thing. She's still a youngster so she hates loosing. She tries to do better and I have to step in and slow her down. SHE'S A MONSTER I TELL YA.

Get running!  Get your stamina up.  Start running a few miles on a tread mill or outside and start doing sprinting drills.  One good drill is called a suicide: Go to your school's gym or a park and use 5 small items (cones, balls, rocks) and space them evenly across the gym or park.  Pick a starting point about 10 feet away from the first object and sprint to it.  Without stopping, sprint back to your starting point, without stopping go to the second object, and back to the start until you have sprinted to the furthest (5th) object and you have sprinted all the way back to the start.  The goal of this exercise is to push yourself as hard as you can.  \nCoaches look for players who work hard and are in shape.  If you can push yourself with running until you feel like you are going to die, you will be sure to impress your coach.  If you are in better shape with running and have high stamina, it will be easier for you to perform well with the ball where others who are not in shape will get tired and start making mistakes.

Either wait until you turn 18 or run very fast.

I'm a 8th Grader too and I had 5.1 and got to be WR and I'm 5'11.\nIf you can catch the ball you can be a WR, RB, QB, or LB if big.\nAnd 5.2 is fast and I was the fastest on my team and we went (8-0).

California Track and running news says: Gene Cole (Lancaster, Ohio) ran 48.0 in the 440 yards in the State Meet at Columbus, Ohio on May 22, 1948.\n\nHe also set the school records for 100yds, 220, and 440 that year.\n\nThe Lancaster High School Distinguished Alumni Hall of Fame lists him as class of 1948. So that's probably a good guess.

40 yard dash is a power run, hit the weight room and get in some leg presses and squats.  You can also try running with resistance, ie weights, a sled, a parachute....But the weight room is an important often overlooked part of sprints.

You could run around a local schools track, or run on the tread mill. This will keep your legs fresh and "quick" when you play sports. Just try to keep you self active and always moving.

40-50 feet depending on age and fast/slow pitch.

The Timex Ironman has the functions you're looking for and only costs about $30.  You can buy them at Target, K-mart, etc...  If you have the $$ then I'd go with a Garmin Forerunner 201 or 301.  It'll do everything you could ever dream on while running.  pace, distance, time, ave pace.  You can program it for intervals.  There is even an option to run against a little figure and show you if you're on pace, too fast or too slow.

That depends on your athletic ability.  Pro football players and Olympic track stars can run the 40 anywhere between 4.2 and 4.6 seconds.  Average athletes should be around 5.0-5.3 seconds.
