400m program (Preseason Week 1)
Each Monday, for the next 12 weeks, I'll be posting a preseason training program for developmental 400m runners.
I get so many questions about this event I've decided to share what I'm doing. This way you can copy it, pick it apart (respectfully), or flat out steal it.
