  1. SCHEDULE 2012 • Monday August 20 Ashtabula Lakeside War on the Shore. • Early season meet that we have an opportunity to win. • Friday August 24 Moeller Primetime Invitational. • Varsity race at 9, run under the lights on a golf course at Kings Island!

  2. SCHEDULE 2012 • OTHER NEW MEETS • Tomahawk Run at Walsh • Black River Invitational (Could win this!) • Gilmour Academy Invite Friday September 28th (If we get in) • Akron Marathon: We will either volunteer to run an aid station as a fundraiser or have the options of running a relay or half marathon

  3. To become a better runner you must run. • “SIMPLE AIN’T EASY! THE SIMPLEST WAY TO GET BETTER AT RUNNING IS TO RUN CONSISTENLY, BUT HOW MANY OF US DO THAT?” Professional Coach Jay Johnson • “WE TEND TO OVERLOOK THE NUMBER ONE THING THAT CAN HAVE THE GREATEST IMPACT ON OUR RACE READINESS, CONSISTENCY!” COACH ROY T. BENSON

  4. To become a better runner you must run. • TO BE YOUR BEST YOU NEED TO RUN SIX TO SEVEN DAYS A WEEK. • YOU HAVE TO TRAIN FAST TO RUN FAST! WE DO SPEED WORK OF SOME TYPE EACH DAY • WE WILL DO THREE SPEED WORKOUTS A WEEK AND STRIDES OF VARIOUS LENGTHS WILL BE OUR SPEED WORK ON THE OTHER DAYS WE RUN. • IF YOU SKIP YOUR STRIDES YOU HAVE NOT PREPARED YOURSELF TO RUN FAST AND WILL PAY THE CONSEQUENCES ON RACE DAY.

  5. To become a better runner you must run. ENDURANCE RUNNING DEFINED • PACE = 1:30/mile SLOWER than 5k race pace • AEROBIC, “conversational” pace, “easy” pace • Not TOO slow, no junk mileage BENEFITS • endurance, delays fatigue! • blood, oxygen, and nutrients to muscles • ability to make more energy without fatigue HOW MUCH • 20 minutes to 120 minutes depending on the day (recovery day, endurance long run) • Warm-up & Cool-down

  6. To become a better runner you must run. TEMPO RUNNING DEFINED • Pace = 25seconds/mile SLOWER than 5k race pace. NOT killer fast/hard • AEROBIC • Faster than “easy” running, but still CONTROLLED pace. “Comfortably Hard” • You will feel like you could go faster, but don’t!! BENIFETS • Improves LACTATE THRESHOLD – Limits that “burn” feeling that comes with racing • Improves fitness for racing with moderate intensity running. Great anytime of the year! • A workout with good “Return on Investment” – low risk of injury, good endurance benefits for all middle & distance events.

  7. To become a better runner you must run. INTERVAL RUNNING DEFINED • Pace = a little faster (5-10sec/mile) than 5k race pace • TOUGH WORKOUT! But still mostly aerobic. • Important to stay EVENLY PACED and precede with a good warm-up. BENEFITS • Improves aerobic power (VO2max): Run FASTER and LONGER. • Makes you mentally tough!

  8. To become a better runner you must run. REPITITION RUNNING DEFINED • Pace = CURRENT Mile Race Pace ability • Quick, short distances with lots of jogging recovery • Moving into more Anaerobic energy production (50% anaerobic/50% aerobic) • Fun workouts! BENEFITS • Improves speed and efficiency (use less energy to run faster) • Improves running mechanics/stride/form

  19. To become a better runner you must run. • HOW TO IMPROVE THIS SEASON? • Consistent training and hard work, you cannot be fast at 5000 meters with out hard work! • Anyone who is not involved in another sport should be running during the winter and spring, 11 months a year to be your best! • For those of you who say “I don’t like track”, you really don’t like to run and I suggest you have a better attitude or stop running. • Those who don’t like track are usually not in shape and in that case I wouldn’t like it either. So get in Shape!

  20. To become a better runner you must run.

  21. To become a better runner you must run. • SEASON GOALS • Train Consistently • Take top 7 spots in the City varsity race: We failed to do this last year because we did not have seven runners in shape! • Take top 10 spots at the city JV Race: We did do this last year • Improve our score and place at the district meet: We did this last year and it will take hard work to do it this year. • At Least have one or more runners qualify for the regional meet! A legit team competes at the district and regional level!

  22. To become a better runner you must run. Summer Training Six days a week: You must run on your own when you miss conditioning, no excuses! Fartlek run: 4 x 90 sec fast 90 steady, 60 fast, 60 steady, 30 fast, 30 steady. Most neglected type of run by American runners Tempo run: 8 to 24 x 400 (Beginner) at tempo one minute rest or 3 to 5 miles non stop at tempo (Advanced)

  23. To become a better runner you must run. Summer Training Hills: 10 sec sprint, followed by 30 second sprint, followed by 60 to 90 second uphill run Long Run: Most important run during the summer to develop the endurance to run fast for a long period of time. Medium long run: A run during the middle of the week of 10 miles or more.

  24. To become a better runner you must run. Summer Training • Returning runners should plan to run anywhere from 35 to 65 miles a week • Peak mileage in August • Mile Repeats will be here in the summer • If you skip two 5 mile runs a week for 8 weeks that adds up to 80 miles you lost. • Who do you think is going to win the race the guy with the extra 80 miles or the inconsistent guy that has run 80 fewer miles? • Why do you think Sarah Meek is so good and destroying girls and some of you guys who use to beat her? CONSISTENT TRAINING!
