2026 Spring Middle Distance Training (800m-5,000m), April 11, 2026, Week 4, Day 6, Week of Races.


Hello high school distance runners, and here’s our spring training guide (March-June) from RunBlogRun.

Training Saturday, April 11, 2026

On your race day. warm up, 6 x 150m sprints, 800m to 5k run, you might consider 4x400m relay team, 30 min easy jog, cool down.

Hydration is a state of mind. Hydration is not drinking too many sugary drinks. it’s about getting enough water, 8-12 glasses of 8-12 oz a day, carrying a water bottle, and managing caffeine and sugary drinks, which are absolute crap for a true athlete. Also, stay away from so-called sports energy drinks and don’t combine them with alcohol. Why train your ass and then mess it up by putting some junk in your mortal engine?
