Milesplit community,
We have a special guest,

Our first rankings of the year! Who sits on top? Where does your team rank?
Who has the strongest girl's team in the land. For the first time in a while there doesn't seem to be a clear favorite. It should be fun to see how these lists change every couple of weeks!
Top 15 young women across a state that is the most wide open it has been in over a decade for the number one individual spot. We expect this ranking list to shift a lot over the next couple of months.
Highlights and Main Points of Interest:
• Ryan uses a short to long system in training the 400, starting with 350m and 150m sprints, and progressing to 450m and 250m efforts.
• Combining 400m and 800m groups is a useful team and speed building dynamic.
• Classifying athletes by groups according to ability level promotes healthy competition to move "up the ladder" in a practice setting.
• Creating high-stakes competition amongst athletes with various ability levels in practice is a great way to improve sprint quality.
• Hill training, and short, efficient strength training sessions featuring full body, ground-based lifts, are a great way to meet the strength requirements for the middle distance events.
