Brandon Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 for those of you who have run either the 3200m or 3000m in track, i could use your help Well to my surprise, I got put in the 3200 for confrence (actually im quite happy with it because it was between the 4x8 and 3200 (since they are next to each other) and im not that good of a sprinter for the 8). last week in a open weekday meet, with only 3 minuites of warming up since we were late to arrive, I ran a 10:50. I really would like to break 10:30 or come very close to it this friday. Ive come up with what i think might work, but i need opinions and such and other tips/ideas. 74 79 (2:33) 80 (3:53) 80 (5:15) 78 (6:33) 80 (7:53) 80 (9:13) 77 (10:30) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/318938-3200m-track-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayepecks Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 I recommend you go here and ask for tips: http://www.dyestat.com/forum/forumdisplay....20&daysprune=30 The 3200 is all about pacing, knowing your limits, and kicking.

ross206 Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 For long runs such as the 3200 u have to set a well pace and the proper form will b the best way to maintain this pace, my coach tought us this form of running called ti-chi or something, its where u use the weight and momentum of ur body to run, its all in the gut. You lean foward into the run and use ur gut to run and your feet just role beneath u, this makes it easier to run 2 miles at a good pace without burning out. The more u lean the longer ur stride will get, behind you. REMEMBER TO LEAN AT THE FEET NOT THE HIPS!!! Good luck man, i run that race too. :yes: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/318938-3200m-track-help/#findComment-585902870 Share on other sites More sharing options...
