Definitely practice. Work hard and try to beat your time. Run hard in practice and your time will get better and better. You have to not worry too hard about the race either because this could mess you up. Trust me. Have fun and do your best!!

If you're running on a school team hopefully you've been doing high-speed workouts. Repeats of 200m, 400m, or 1000m work really well for all long/middle distance events. Remember to hydrate sufficiently and most importantly stretch. Any progress you make can be destroyed by injuries.

What event.
quality practices working on technique, proper facilities to train , proper equipment, diet, sleep, weight program. If you gave me an event I would have given you specific exercises and drills but since you didn't I would be flying in the wind, I could give you drills for hurdles or the 100m when you may be running the 1500m.

think positive, enjoy what youre doing, and PRACTICE.
also get a great pair of running shoes and dress for the occasion especially when its really cold. Never over do it, its not healthy and can result in injury. Dont take too long a break when training because you can lose everything youve gained in a matter of weeks. constantly run and set weekly goals for yourself.

If yo are running as fast as you can you, and you are not lifting weight go to the weigts, they will deffently make you a more stronger runner. I know, I am a runner too. Drink lots of water, be healthy, and practice.

Run religously, first of all.
And during the race, make yourself want it more than the others. You may never come in first place, but this will defiently help you.

Running is 80 percent mental. Whenever you feel comfortable during a race/crazy training session, pick it up. Never say die, never listen to that voice that tells you you're tired, you hurt, you're bored....
The other 20 percent? Ask a coach, running buddy, whomever- it's the mentality that really matters.

You can't teach speed, strength work helps. As for distance, a person can definitely improve if they are willing to put in the miles and hard work.

Practice is the only way.
Take your training seriously and work hard.

as john madden says: "50% of the game is half mental"
