[QUOTE="BJ The Man, post: 5195964, member: 575970"] I am an all state track runner, although I specialize in the long jump I can tell you that the rick to running any distance over 200meters (220 yards i believe) is simply to keep rhythm. At my school the distance teams go on "tempo" runs where they run until they start to feel fatigue such as cramps or just running out of breath. They then take a 2 minute break and continue trying harder each time to find rhythm. The easiest way that I have found to keep goo rhythm between your heart rate, strides, and breathing is simply starting at a solid paced jog and finding a pace that you can inhale for "X" number of strides and then exhale for "X" number of strides. Doing this keeps your mind off of the fatigue because your concentrating on keeping rhythm. I can run about 1.5 miles when I'm in just decent shape before I feel any anxiety. Just wear headphones with quiet music and keep in beat with your steps and breathing. Practice will also get you some where. Right now you can't run far but if make it a daily thing taking a one day break every 3 days you will feel great. Seriously I'm a smoker and I can still do work on my school distance team at times. Don't forget to stretch too. Twice a day even on off days. 5 minute warm up, 10minute stretch, do your run, stretch for 15 minutes. Then stretch again before bed. Good luck bro [/QUOTE]
