HOW TO RUN THE 400
Pay attention. There shall be a test later today!
First FIVE steps as fast as you can. Head down.
First 50 meters fast. I will have a cone at that mark to remind you to run hard to that point
From 50 meters to 200 meters, "float". This does not mean slow down, but merely relax your shoulders and neck muscles. Continue your pace with chin up, chest up and big arm action.
At 200 meter mark (will have another cone there) - accelerate for 10 meters (will place a third cone there as well).
From 220 meters to about 310 meters attack the curve by leaning slightly into it.
From 310 meters to the finish ( homestretch) "get tall". Step over drive down.
YES, you are tired, but this is the "guts portion" of the race.
When you reach the finish line, if you are religious in any way, THANK your maker!
The difference between you and others may very well be that you have a PLAN on how to run the race and are not simply running it to see what happens.
One of my best friends in life (Donald G. Beaman) always told me "You have GOT to have a PLAN!"
