How do I get fast at running?

Adapt to running faster. The best way I've seen is using a sort of harness with two long ass straps each connected to a person on either side of you. They take off sprinting ahead you and then it pulls faster than you can run.
Michael Rogers
You put weight straps on your ankles so that when you walk and run youre like in water resistance and then when you take them off you're going to go too fast like zooooom

This has actually been shown to make you slower.

>total volume of distance run in training was a strong predictor of performance scores; indeed, just the total volume of training itself explained up to 59% of performance score variability between athletes
>The main training contributor to the total distance run during the athlete’s careers was the easy runs, accounting for approximately two-thirds of each 2-year accumulated total. Previous
studies on training intensity distribution in elite-standard endurance sports similarly stated that most training is performed at low intensities (28,36).
Tl;dr--run more and run slow
Carter Peterson
interval training.

Depends on goals (distance and pace)
Your conclusion is retarded and wrong.
Mostly this, intervals are the core of making you faster. You will need a mix though. 0-1 tempo run, 1-2 interval sessions, 1 long run. Each intense run followed up buy an easy regeneration run. Which leaves you with another day of medium intensity and distance. This basic schedule is also why most runs are easy runs. You need them for regeneration and base endurance. Not because they 'make you faster' on their own.

this isn't anime retard, you're just gonna destroy your joints.

Is this bait?

The thing I love most about the no heat/no AC bit is that he didn't actually do it to become stronger mentally, he was just poor. During the flashback, there's a sign on the AC unit that just says "save money".

oh shit really? I've been lied to by my Japanese cartoons?
Parker Ross
It's not. I saw it when I did it in high school football practice.

>Your conclusion is retarded and wrong.
So you pretty much said the post is retarded, then said the opposite of what all the top exercise physiologists say is more important: base mileage. 80/20 running. Read it.
Asher Long
Show me a top aethlete that does nothing but easy runs. You can get fast on low distances without a lot of milage though.
Carson Garcia
Mo Farah and Eliud Kipchoge. Yes, I know you saud nothing but easy runs, but if you read the study cited--it concludes that high mileage is a better predictor of speed--not intervals or tempos. Those two, along with anyone worth their salt, do close to 80% easy running.
Owen Johnson
So you agree with me that you have to do everything with a ratio depending on your goals? 'Run more and slow' is a shit advice, because without speedwork you won't get fast. Just like you won't get endurance without milage.
Anthony Taylor
I won't deny that speed work has its place with us who are already at high mileage, but if a person is asking about how to get fast, it's very easy to assume that they have low mileage and need to focus more on their aerobic base over speed work as 90+% of distances past the mile uses more if the aerobic system. Once he gets his mileage up, then he can start speed work. For a beginner like OP, all the stuff speedwork helps like VO2max, running economy, and lactate threshold will be helped just by running slow and more mileage.

Work on A and B mechanics
Brody Evans
Run more, not every run has to be a hard run overall running volume is the most important, but make sure to do hard runs as well to really push yourself mentally and physically
Nathan Nelson
Squat and deadlift to increase leg strength
Powerclean to increase explosivity
Then run a lot
Charles Nelson
> how do I do X better?
perhaps practice X more. A thread died for this
Landon Davis
Not really being lied to, it's just a subtle joke that's easy to miss.
Connor Gray
Are you fat? Lose weight and you will speed up considerably. I dropped a minute on my mile time just by losing 15lbs
Robert Lewis
This, beginners won't have the aerobic fitness necessary to get the full benefit, or maybe not even complete an interval workout. Better cardio enables you to do more speed work in a session. Cardio => intervals => fast runner.
Julian Smith
Put flame stickers on your shoes. Cuts your min/mile in half.
