Personally, I just give 100% effort the whole time (obviously I don't maintain top speed the whole time though). I solely focus on staying relaxed. If I tense up at any point in the race my time will wind up being up to 1 second off. I've also got a very solid level of natural speed endurance (my 200m is faster than 2x my 100m) so this strategy may not work for everyone. Just my two cents!
I went out as fast as I could without being tense and I ended up getting tired only after 100m and my form started to break down with 150 to go. I was in first and I was able to maintain that. The guy on the lane to my left was neck to neck with slightly in front of me going around the last turn but I had the outside so I was technically running faster. With 50m to go I started to brings my knees up and was able to pass him.
@roshnibouri2356 I ran...after much hesitation, I was thinking of just hiding, but I placed 4th out of 8..so it's not the worstt, afterwards I threw up near the bathrooms because of this sudden exercise. Then I accidentally went to the boys bathroom. As a girl.
If you do it right, you can sprint 300m until just before the muscles become too acidic. You can maintain your top speed for about 30 seconds before acidification sets in. The ideal is that you sprint the first 150m at 95% of your personal top speed, then you go down to 92% to recharge reserves, the 3% are completely sufficient to recharge the battery. After that, when you turn onto the home stretch, you pick up the pace again to be at 95% again, the last 50m you then notice whether you can mobilize your reserves for a last stable 50m sprint.
We must run 300m different down under in Australia. We only have 1 bend to run. Typically the first 100m starts at the top of back straight, then we run the bend that would usually be the first 100m of a 200m sprint and then bring it home down what is usually the 100m straight. I've never seen a track like Latif has drawn.
Thanks a lot. I never really thought about doing that sneaky on the line of lane 1 and 2 trick. Its no use for me when Im running for a good time, but any race that im running to win, that will be a great tactic to use! (because although it slows your opponent down and makes them have to run farther, it also makes you have to run a tiny bit farther too so I would not recommend this for those races where you know you will win and you are running for a good time. Thanks!
i have to finish a 300 meter run for 50 seconds,and i dont know if i should go with all power from the beegining to the end or increasin my speed step by step. the reason of this question is cuz almost at the end of the line a feel extremly tired
definitely go hard about 95% for the first 100 on the curve just float and then on the second curve do 100% from there till the end it's very hard to not be tired at the end, if that's your case you might want to go 75% on the first curve but you don't want to slow down to much or you will lose all your energy and need to rebuild it
Hey I’m preparing for California Highway Patrol physical and I just needed to grasp what 300 meters looks like distance wise. You have great energy, a lot of endorphins rushing around and it’s very contagious. I kept thinking to myself hey man I’m a tennis player why am I training for a 300 meter dash! I like what you said about free energy right from the start. Say you gas out but you can recover so much faster because you haven’t been running for as long. For example the alternative I like to add HIIT sprints in between runs say my pace is 8’ I’ll sprint much faster until I gas out and then it takes longer to recover and maintain 8’ pace until I control my breathing again.
Well you kinda can't, well at least not well. It is a sprint, so if you can't maintain close to your top speed by floating the whole race, you will have to go at a lower speed, but you'll be unlikely to win against experienced athletes.
My pr is 47.17 and I want to qualify which is 45.24. What should i do to help me take off seconds. Any strategy’s? I usually just go 100% and hang on for the last 55 but if there is another way that would help, I would be glad to hear!
I just ran my second ever 300m with about 1.5 months of practice (just joined indoor track for the first time) and I got 47.37. It’s not good but I’m hoping if I continue track for the year (and do cross country in the fall) I can get it below 40.00 by next indoor track season
AloE Tragedy I have a friend who runs 40 seconds and is 14 though he runs for the county and has had a huge growth spurt recently, I can agree with you when you say this is bullshit tho, just a guy trying to get attention. It took him 3 years to get it tho lol
I have to run 300m in 68 secs. Which I don't have an issue. My issue is breathing and getting gassed around 150m. How can help this. My legs don't get gassed it's my breathing and the lack of
i run jv 300 and it sucks. we do a barrel start of 8 people and we can immediatly break so its a little different. the peole who barrel into lane 1 will win the break as opposed to those in lane 4.
I am running first 200 meters 100% and then i am dead but when i see that i am first, and there is just 100m to go, i go 150% of my energy and i cant stop. 39 seconds 14 year old
Mariano Ezeta it depends what your coach tells you, some people do a waterfall start while other stay in there lane the whole time. you don't want to get DQ by going into another lane if it's not so always ask
Thanks for this, ran a 300m like this today. 35.53s and new PB.

Good luck mate
I'm in your position right now. Sports day on Friday. 300m run. In a stadium of every single student and teacher in my school.

The video would be for an indoor track which is 200m
You can't run your best possible time if you sprint the whole thing all out. #Science.
I have been searching throughout TH-cam and I could have sworn that Coach Latif Thomas had a How to Run the 200 meter (Set up a race plan) video.
The first 30 i just go full throttle from that point just stay relaxed and keep form
So Mr Thomas!!about the 300 outdoors...we go all out the first 30-40 meters,then float until 150m and the last 150m everything we got???
I was so confused until I realized this was an indoor track
Sometimes yes. In our dual meets we stay in lanes, but in state meets we break at 150m. Just use common sense there isn't much difference in strategy.
In Denmark we never switch lanes in a 300m

So did you pass
how do you run a 300m if you don't have good conservation of energy?
Well you kinda can't, well at least not well. It is a sprint, so if you can't maintain close to your top speed by floating the whole race, you will have to go at a lower speed, but you'll be unlikely to win against experienced athletes.
The whole point is to run the best of your ability. Do what he says, and you will run a good time for you.

Is this for 200m track rather than 400m?
Yes

How do i improve my concentration when running the 400m race
Mohammed Nwumya reach your running pace as fast as you can, then float.
Come to Bishop Feehan High School in MA!
I just ran my second ever 300m with about 1.5 months of practice (just joined indoor track for the first time) and I got 47.37.
It’s not good but I’m hoping if I continue track for the year (and do cross country in the fall) I can get it below 40.00 by next indoor track season
Hi. Cross country makes sprinter slow
What lines do you use to measure the meters between the 100 m?
I thought that in 300m u stayed in your lane
You do at certain levels i guess
You do in hurdles but in indoor you do
you do outdoor but don't on an indoor 200m track
When I was running 300 indoor I stayed in the line
Same for me, I never had a break in the indoor 300m.
im british 14 and running 39 flat in the 300m. anyone know how i'd do in the US wuth the better athletes?
Joshua Akinwumi bullshit

Arystar XIX that's almost as good as the olympians...you should go to the olympics Fucking lying ass😂
AloE Tragedy ok 36 is nowhere near an Olympian. They'll run it in 30-31 maybe 32 at worst
I agree we usually start the 300m race (outdoors) in Canada like you do in Australia

so if it was outdoor track 300 meters would not go all around the track?

I ran it all out as a freshman and pulled a 39.54 it was my first meet as well

Helpful. I will use this during my first meet.
is 38.7 seconds for the 300m a decent time for a 14 year old boy?
yea
That's really really good my school's record is only .3 sec faster and my PR is 43.74 I'm 16 lol
That is very good, but i m running the 300m in 36"75 with 14 years
I ran my PR of 39.40 when I was 15 so I'd say you're in a very good spot
Yes I ran 39.54 at 14 which was impressive so your time is even more impressive
what about the outdoor for the same
I'm sorry, completely new to the world of sprinting. What is a "break"?
The point in a race where you are allowed to leave your lane and cut into lane 1.
We're everyone can come out of their designated lanes
Thankyou so much, very useful x

Nice!
this is for indoor tracks
Then you should follow the strategy I talk about!
38.63 when i was 18 now im 25 maybe a 41 42
You're welcome!
I have no strategy I sprint the whole race
Same with me. But I am always winded after the race
the start is my break the break is me pulling away the last 30m is my sprinting
Ok. So where the 300 meters actually start from
We start at different point!
Thanks will use in my first meet
Thanks these help

If you wanna be competitive you gotta go like 43 or even lower than that tbh
