HS Short Sprinter's Training Journal

My plans are rather vague as I will be changing training settings. Previously I have been training on my own with a partner but starting Nov. 30 I will be in season with my school team that doesnt exactly follow the same training style. My coach is more of the classical tempo style coaches, although i talked with him today and he was willing to listen about changing the program but he hasn’t decided yet and i dont want to get my hopes up.

So my reasoning for what I have done has two parts. One, i did this because i am considering running in college next year and would like to run some decent times to give to coaches early in the season (this was not the main reason, just a result) and secondly i set it up like this so that in the worse case scenario, which would be me entering the tempo program, that way at least i would have my accel and top speed in place and then i could just race myself into shape for the 200s and fine tune the 55.
