How can you improve on your speed (running)?

Answer 1

For short races (sprints) its all about thigh and calf muscle... for longer races, overall stamina must be improved along with leg strength. I see lots of Squat Thrusts and Knee Bends in your future. Never lift alone and follow a sensible regimen so as to not over stress your muscles, tendons, and ligaments.

Answer 2

You must do anarobic sprints, wind sprints or what ever you want to call them.

If you only train at one speed, you won't be able to sustain a faster pace. So, if you run 3 miles a day you need to throw in some 100+ yard sprints, then drop back to your regular pace until you catch your breath. Do this every other time you run and eventually your normal pace will become faster.

Answer 3

Extremely light wrist weights (1pd) or run with track batons in both hands. The generator of speed starts with your arm pump.

Answer 4

by running short distance and build it over time. the key point here is to build up my stamina and preparation such as ample water consumption, and warm up is important so that i won't hurt myself. a suitable pair of running shoe is vital too. cheers.
