800 and 1600 Meter Training and Racing 800 and 1600 Meter Training and Racing Natalie Reyes Women’s Middle and Long Distance Track Coach at Cherry Creek HS A little about myself: • Have coached Track and Cross Country for the past 10 years at Chaparral, Columbine and Cherry Creek. • Didn’t start with a distance background, anyone can learn! • I have a great support system at home and a track loving family! Natalie Reyes | Cherry Creek High School CHSCA Track Clinic 1/29/2016 2 Points of Emphasis for my Presentation Today: • Relationships with your athletes • What my Typical Practice looks like • Training Plans for a 800 and 1600 meter runner • Basic racing strategies for the 800 and 1600 Natalie Reyes | Cherry Creek High School CHSCA Track Clinic 1/29/2016 3 Building a Relationship with your Athletes • Its important that your athletes trust you • Be honest with them • Put in the energy to be the best mentor that you could possibly be, it will pay off • Don’t cut corners, do your best to individualize • Kids respect hard work and you caring about them • Make each practice worthwhile and have fun! CHSCA Track Clinic 1/29/2016 4 • “There is so much that I love Jordan McCurdy (Sophomore) about our distance team! I 800 – 2:26.64 think my favorite part is just 1600 – 5:33.37 how close everyone on the distance team is by the end of the season. I think that is something that is especially unique to our team. Our workouts can be so mentally and physically challenging, and having a strong, supportive team always brings out the best in me.” Natalie Reyes | Cherry Creek High School CHSCA Track Clinic 1/29/2016 5 How to find 800/1600m Runners on Your Team • 1600m time trials during Pre-Season • Pentathlon • Most simple way is to have your athletes try running one event up and down from what they think is “their event”. Compare their time to others on your team and find their strength. o Athletes are drawn to events where they are most successful Natalie Reyes | Cherry Creek High School CHSCA Track Clinic 1/29/2016 6 Training the 800 from two different approaches: • The 800 is roughly 60% Aerobic and 40% Anaerobic • Two different athletes that will run the 800. The “Sprint 800m Runner” vs “The Distance 800m Runner” • Both are extremely different athletes that need their training approached in two different ways to find success. • How do you train both these athletes without trying to manage 10 different workouts each day!?!? o Easy method is to get on track with your sprint/long sprint coach and design your workouts such that you are on the same type of workout schedule. If you do this, you can easily have the sprint 800m runners workout with the sprint group on certain days. Natalie Reyes | Cherry Creek High School CHSCA Track Clinic 1/29/2016 7 Training the 1600m Runner • In my opinion, its easier. 1600m runners need a distance approach to find success. You can only find success if athletes get a proper base under their belts with proper speed training via intervals and hill workouts. • This athlete is more versatile. Can jump up and down from the 800m to the 3200m. • Don’t let your athletes get stuck in just running one event like the 1600. When runners race different distances, it helps them gain experience in racing and prevents that runner from getting frustrated with their event if they don’t see improvements week to week. Natalie Reyes | Cherry Creek High School CHSCA Track Clinic 1/29/2016 8 Basic Racing Tips for the 800 and 1600 • Race strategies can vary significantly from athlete to athlete. o Not a one size fits all solution • Get to know your athletes tendencies as a runner, and work to help them better the part of the race they may struggle with. o 800 – 200 splits o 1600 – 400 splits • In general: o 800 – Even split or positive split o 1600 – Even split or negative split Natalie Reyes | Cherry Creek High School CHSCA Track Clinic 1/29/2016 9 Basic Racing Tips for the 800 and 1600 • Remember they are high school kids!!! Don’t overthink it! • Make some of your workouts mimic race type scenarios or practice their race pace in interval training. • Most important part of the race it that they are having fun, and learning from their experiences. Natalie Reyes | Cherry Creek High School CHSCA Track Clinic 1/29/2016 10 Typical Practice • Whole Team warm-up o Improves team comradery o Less occurrences of injuries o Helps your distance runner improve their form • Split into groups • Assign workout with an explanation on why they are doing it and what they should get out of it • Post Practice Routine • Extras o 3-6-9-12-9-6-3 Ab workout Natalie Reyes | Cherry Creek High School CHSCA Track Clinic 1/29/2016 11 Warm-Up Pre-Season: 2x20 meters/set Mid-Season: 2x30 meters/set Late Season: 2x40 meters/set 1. 1 LAP TOGETHER ON TRACK (Start on East side) 2. 40-60m STRIDES ACROSS TURF 3.

Jordyn Colter Every week it was consistently the (Freshman at Cal) same type workouts, but sometimes 800 – 2:04.56 1600 – 4:46.22 the intensity would increase a bit. Mile – 4:41.10 The little progressions we made in training made such a big difference, and they turned into big key workouts that really increased my fitness. My body got used to each workout and week by week it seemed to get easier. I saw major improvements in just one week and it continued throughout the season. Mixed with the proper rest and recovery days, consistent training was the most important thing for me last year!” Natalie Reyes | Cherry Creek High School CHSCA Track Clinic 1/29/2016 14 3 Phases to a Runners Season • Phase 1: Pre-Season (Roughly 12 weeks) o Typically around December to start of track season in February o Important to get base training done during this time period o Strength training is also an essential part of your training regiment o Don’t be scared to give your workouts some variety!

  • Three Norwegian Brothers All European 1500 M Champions: What Is the Secret?
    Case study International Journal of Sports Science & Coaching 2019, Vol. 14(5) 694–700 Three Norwegian brothers all European ! The Author(s) 2019 Article reuse guidelines: 1500 m champions: What is the secret? sagepub.com/journals-permissions DOI: 10.1177/1747954119872321 journals.sagepub.com/home/spo Leif I Tjelta Abstract The aim of this study was to analyse the performance development and training structure of three Norwegian brothers, HI, FI and JI who are all European 1500 m champions, and to examine to what extent training, environment and family support has been decisive in their development. Their performance development and training from the age of 13 was examined through analysis of the Norwegian Athletic Federation (Norges Friidrettsforbund) all-time best results for boys in 800 m and 1500 m; analysis of training diaries; observation of training sessions; and dialogue with the three runners, their father and coach and their mother. All three were very physically active from a young age, and they have taken part in different sports. In the preparation period leading up to the 2018 and 2019 seasons, these three athletes ran an average of 140–160 kmÁweek–1, with 23–25% at and above anaerobic threshold pace. Training intensity was monitored and controlled via blood lactate measurements taken during all interval sessions. Throughout childhood and adolescence, the boys were highly motivated and strongly encouraged to take part in sport and training by their close family. All the three were coached by their father. An active childhood, a gradual progression in training volume, strong family support, mental toughness, a high volume of training at and above anaerobic threshold, and mindful monitoring and regulation of training intensity have brought these brothers to a top international level in distance running.

It is in this context that we developed this Teachers’ guide which provides guidance to Physical Education and Sports teachers on how to lead and help students perform different techniques, sports and games as prescribed in the syllabus.

  • Why the Magic Mile?By Jeff Galloway
    Why the Magic Mile? By Jeff Galloway The Magic Mile is a unique tool to help members determine realistic goals! The MM is the result of 15 years of data collection. It has been an extremely accurate predictor of current performance. Analysis has shown that most runners slow down 30% when they go from a fast one mile, to a fast per mile pace in a marathon and by 20% when they run a fast half marathon. The miles will help show progress as runners usually improve each time. The runner is getting faster and stronger. The Magic Mile is a great team building exercise. Encourage the groups to cheer each other on. The Magic Mile will help determine: • If the goal pace is realistic. • How much improvement can be expected, and whether someone is on track to meet the goal. • Running the Magic Mile takes the guesswork out of goal setting. This often involved putting the reins on the ego, which will talk the person into goals that are not within their current capabilities. • These formulas will allow one to predict race time by running a timed mile. • During the training season, the group will run a Magic Mile on a set schedule, depending on the training goal. Guidelines for running the Magic Mile: • If possible, have the group meet at a track, or other accurately measured one mile course. One mile is four loops around a track. If you do not have a track available, use a GPS mapping tool or online mapping program, such as www.favoriterun.com or www.usatf.org Find a flat, uninterrupted one mile stretch.
