To those that attended the clinc, I wanted to say in Jay's defense: he was right about the rest interval of my workout; it was 30 minutes!

The workout was about 10 days before the state meet, and we were trying to assure two of our girls that they could run the 4×800/400 prelim double. At our state meet, they're about an hour apart.

So, we ran an all-out 600, took 30 minutes, then ran an all-out 300, the thought being, if they can do that with 30 miuntes, they'd be fine with a full hour. The workout went great as did the meet.

If we needed any more affirmation as to how good a coach Jay is, the fact that he knew our workout better than I did should suffice.

Jay, I'm sure the answer to this is contained elsewhere on the site, but, besides the LM, what other non-running stuff do you consider “essential” that is also easy to implement with HS athletes?
