Back to Road Work...

Any of you guys run sprints? I do 2-4 mile runs about twice a week for general conditioning and would like to add sprints. Any routines?

[dave_UK_MT]

Yep, I run sprints, I do them after my usual 4 mile run.

I usually 3 x 100m uphill sprints - sprint to top, jog slowly back down and repeat untill sick.

Gives you explosive power in the legs, good foor kicking hard and fast.

1km - 1000m
1mile = 1560 m exactly

1mile = 1.56km

[dave_UK_MT]

1 mile = 1,609.344 meter

According to http://www.onlineconversion.com/length_common.htm

I was out by less than a meter.

MAN....never mind the figures!!!!!! just run until your knackered then run some more.

[Tom Yum]

Nice one Ghost, but your figures are off.

Slow runs make me tired.
Sprinting makes me puke.
Sparring gets me wired.
The trolls here are a fluke.

I'm doin' 3 miles at 23min every morning right now. Gonna start uphill sprints again next week.

Its hard getting back on the wagon once youve fallen off ,il be the first to admit that .
I like your quote minister , i havent heard it before.
