I was thinking back to when I was running my personal bests. There are a couple factors that play in to that one of them being I was training and racing at sea level in Vancouver, Washington, but I remembered that one thing I think was a big contributor to me running my best was doing plyometrics.
In high school we would do them almost daily. We had a little 10-20 minute warm-up jog, then we would do 15-20 minutes of plyometrics, then the work-out. Anyways, 3 days a week I am doing plyos (as we/I like to call them.) I do them on my easy days, MWF. I wake up at 6 a.m., read the Bible and/or Book of Mormon for 30 minutes, then I'm out the door to a nearby church where there's a small grassy area (that you'll see in this video) and I do plyos for about 20-25 minutes until 7:00 and then I run for 30 minutes either by myself or a friend.
Anyways, watch this sweet video, see what I do and have a good day.
Reminds me of monty python and the holy grail. Just lovely.
