[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]HS is when things start to get serious. Now I would work on speed and stamina. From what I have seen- the fast kids are fast from the beginning. Training can help but a lot of it is genetics.[/quote] In general I think you are right. I ran a 9:15 2 mile as a 14 year old in the 70’s. Ran a 4:10 mile as a 15 year old. I didn’t think I was good but in hindsight I was fast - low mileage guy. There are exceptions. An excellent local coach ran a 6 minute mile as a freshman but ended up being a 29 minute 10 guy in the ACC. Don’t need to start early but let the sport take you where it will with a number of realistic interim goals. [/quote]
