I am 16 years old and I will be a junior when school starts again. When I run my 400m I always throw up after. I don't know if it's because of my weight or if I don't drink enough water or what the reason can be.

I also do hurdles and would like to do the 100, 200. How can I improve in these events? Do you always have to 3-step in-between hurdles?

Your advice would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

Sprinting is an anaerobic activity and produces a large amount of lactic acid in the muscles. For the 200m and 400m events, sprinters must develop a high-lactate tolerance. The reason for the nausea is because the high-lactate tolerance has not been developed. If an athlete is vomiting, this means he/she is pushing at 90-100% but is not in condition to do so.

When an athlete pushes to the limits, he/she is producing the lactic acid which causes fatigue and nausea. Inexperience and lack of confidence will also cause some athletes to be anxious. As they gain experience and confidence, it is suppressed.

The goal is to run 90-100% in speed sessions. If an athlete is not in condition, he/she should work up to this gradually.

The 100-200 meter sprinter is trained as a 100 meter sprinter. The concept is to break the 100 meter down and to master all the skills necessary to be a 100 meter runner. As you are mastering the skills, speed endurance is added to the training. Speed endurance develops the sprinter to run the 200 meters.

Follow a reference chart with the following information that applies to girls:

Girls’ 100 meter hurdles:
As you master the 100m skills, add speed endurance to the training.

· Hurdle height is 33 inches
· Number of hurdles is 10
· Distance to the first hurdle is 13 meters
· Distance between hurdles is 8.5 meters
· Distance from last hurdle to finish is 10.5 meters
· Strides to first hurdle are 8-9 (the goal is 8 strides)
· Strides between hurdles is 3
· Strides from last hurdle to finish are 5
· Total strides are 50-51
· Flat time vs. hurdle time – add 2.0-2.5 seconds
· Take off distance to hurdle is 5’3”-6’4”

There are two recommended methods in the development of hurdling technique:

· The three-stride rhythm between the hurdles is introduced right from the beginning, adjusting the distances between the hurdles according to the performance level until competition distances are mastered.

· Competition distances between the hurdles are introduced from the beginning but the number of strides between the hurdles is not fixed.

Both methods have been tried and found to be successful.

Your first priority is technique. Never forget that the hurdler is a sprinter first.

In the hurdles section of the web site, refer to the article entitled “Beginning Hurdle Training” by Fred Almond.
