Want To Run Faster?
Although this has been a pretty mild winter, especially compared to last year, many people wait until spring to start really training more seriously for races later in the summer and fall. Most runners would like to run faster, but not many know the best way to do it. If you don't have the luxury of a running coach or the time to join a running team, we have put together some simple drills you can add to your training to help you improve your speed. Long story short: To run faster, you have to train faster. Most avid runners are "plugged" in and know their pace...now that you know what you pace is, you just have to decide what pace you want to get to and start training. Get to local high school track and try some of the pace work we have in this handy grid. Training use "ladder work", "pyramid work", and repeat 1/4 or 1/2 miles is a great way to start to run faster and learn a new pace. Get out there and give it shot!
