Noob Slayer I literally ran the 400m today but I signed up for 100 & 200m, though the coach didn’t like me doing 100 & 200 so he forced me to do 400 and I got 1:13 around 8 out of 8th place 10th heat. Feels bad man, it was my first time feeling actual pain during a race as my body is not used to distance running

Just watching this is giving me extreme anxiety from running track last semester

This is a great video, but I think there was too little emphasis on the float phase. As I've gotten better at the 400, I've realized the importance of the float. This coach mentioned it as running " Just on the brink of insanity" which for me translates to around 90-95% effort on the back stretch, but it's important to know that you aren't actively trying to accelerate here. Instead, you are maintaining the speed you'd worked so hard to create in the first place! Just trying to clear something up and pass on some information that has helped me, good luck!

From my experience in hs track, warming up your legs when your on the starting line was MAJOR in getting a good opening. Most people tend to stand and do nothing when waiting on the line and you can use that to your advantage. Just simply shaking your legs around and having blood pumping makes your body prepared and that adrenaline starting to flow early on.

Just jumped from a 53.18 to a 52.25 in one race with this strategy! Thanks so much!

Before I knew how to run the 400, I was running 61-62 pretty consistently, but I finally learned how to do it and I won a state championship with a 56.15. Awesome advice!!

That 200m part is so crucial. One time when I was at a track meet I was doing a 400m, I was in third and the guy in second just stopped to catch his breath at 300m.

I just wanted to sincerely thank you for this video! I know a lot of the comments here are fake (and funny), but your race strategy really did help me. I'm a female HS distance runner (probably upper JV), and my previous 400 PR was 74 something. When I recently found out we had an upcoming 400 time trial, I panicked and searched KZread for help and found your video. I found it incredibly helpful, and I told all my distance friends about your strategy (they thought your advice for the last 100 was hilarious). After watching your video, I was able to drop 3 seconds at the time trial! Thank you so so much!!

Cheers for this, went from a 1:20 to a 1.04. This plan worked to perfection, went out hard and that immediately put me in front of 6 out of the other 7 runners, I made a mistake in slowing down too much down the straight, so another runner took advantage of this and I was placed second, so I'd strongly advise you to remember not too decrease your pace too much. Then around the turn,I reaccelerated like Latif suggests, and I made up a 10m gap by the time I was coming down the stretch. Kill the turn, attack that as hard as you can. Last 80-100is all mental. If you want it bad enough, if u can withstand the pain, you will win.

Thank you for the great explanation of your race strategy. I am looking forward to incorporating it into my next runs.

Great, helpful information. It's always easy to pick out those runners who haven't been trained to run a 400m. They don't pace well and die on the last turn. My son is a 400m runner and loves the race. Will definitely pass this video on to him.

very helpful video. I really learned something from it. and I recognized many parts of my races so far. my death point is usually at 250m. in my next race i will use your strategy, thanks!

Thank you your good info. Very very useful. I'm was a sprinter myself but probably burned too much in the curve, probably ran 70-80 meters hard rather that the 50 meters. I shared this info with my 13 year old son and he did an amazing job in a meet this past Saturday. He took 3rd place in his first event of the year against competition that may have been training for 1-2 months more. So thanks again.

It's my first year in track as a middle schooler 7th grade and my 400 m time went from a 1:27 down to a 1:23 because of this thank you so much.

Thanks for this

This helped me a lot this year. I appreciate it.

Wow,outstanding video... Just phenomenal! Thank you for the very detailed,descriptive breakdown of how to run the 400 meter dash,you are very much appreciated by many. I have been running the 400 for the past 5 years now splitting nearly the same exact time each year, running somewhere between 60-57 seconds. My 200 meter time dropped from 32 seconds to 23.02 and the 100 meter dash from 13.7 to 11.37 over the last 5 years but my 400 meter dash time just wouldn't budge. I could never figure out how to run it, i would always go out hard and then just completely die by the last 200 meter dash. i have learned that it takes a completely different mind set to run the 400 meter dash then a 2. You must commit but be smart about it. Thank you so so very much i learned a lot.!!!!!!!

Great tips- thanks - just PR'd in the 400m - shaved a full second off my time using this strategy.

Awesome advice :). My 400m time improved by almost 6 seconds after watching this!

I completely agree with you! This is how I used to run the 4x4. This diagram is great and I am going to use it for my kids!

Wow a whole 18 minutes to explain a race that's about a minute! This 18 minutes of explaining will help me a lot! Thank you so much!😎🤙🔥

I ran the 400 m last year, and I'm doing it again this year, when I saw how fast those other guys were going boosted my adrenaline, and I ran the fastest time I had ever run that race. I finished second place

my first 400 was awesome i tried sprinting the whole thing at the end i crossed the line and my legs stopped working fell on my face didnt catch my self at all got a 57.2 then went "that's nice i dont know what that means this is my first year doing a sport joiner" (coach) and threw up and slept the rest of the meet hahahaha

Thank you, I’m on the track and field team and I’m usually the best at the sprinting events, and now I know the stages on what to do on each section

Thank you, this is the most helpful video for the 400 meter that I have seen. I’m pretty fit but my 400 meter time is slow, I didn’t have a plan so that is probably partly why, I’m going to try this as soon as possible, I hope it helps

This actually really opened my eyes to the 400 race. This made me think about how to run my 400

Great video! I am one of those people who get really sick after the 400, yet not any other race since it is one of the longest sprints. This video really helped visualise what the whole race will be like, so I can now have a proper plan. Thank you

i ran my first 400 at time trials yesterday and my coach said my time was a little over a minute and then i watched this and i just cut my time down a LOT. thank you omg this video helped me keep my spot on my varsity track team. Aahhhhh

Thanks u so much, I have been running 400 for a year now, and still had no idea on how to run it, now that i saw this video I can challenge my self to do everything u said from the arm expanding toward the end, too the mental part that takes place in the 200-300. Keep making these videos there amazing and very helpful, and wish me luck for my meat tomorrow.

I ran my first 400m (not competition just at practice) and it was horrible 😣 but now i have a better understanding of what to do😊👍🏽

Thank you so much for the tips! They're going to help me a lot!!

Thank you for telling me this. I’ve been doing the 400 and I’ve always ran without a plan. I was doing a 400 last night for my track meet and I was in 1st place for the majority of the time but sold it and came in 3rd place in 2nd heat. This is what I was missing the entire time and will help me out for sure. Everyone was complimenting on how good I did in the 400 today at school (the next day after my track meet if you are reading this at a different day) I always pray before my track meet.

This had helped me sooo much! My first ever race is a week from now and I am so scared. If I can’t beet the fastest people on my team, I am just imagining how fast these other people are gonna be in my meets. But this has helped me a lot. I used to just go full on sprinting the whole way through and manage to keep the same paste.

I know this is 4 years old but how did you do?

A well-explained video. Much respect. When I coached summer track, my strategy for running the 400m wasn't too far off. I always trained my kids to get out of the first turn at near top speed. Two reasons: #1 - races can be lost at the first 50m. #2: it's easier to set ourselves up on the back stretch at near top speed than to play catch up. During practice, we would train at a reasonably high paces so that the kids have a good idea of what to expect physically. Then, I emphasize that when they hit the 200m mark, just take off, before fatigue kicks in and your body begins to crash, concentrating on the form (in particular the knee) as much as possible. I'm happy to say I saw a lot of success given that that game plan. We ran a lot of 600m and 800m during practice. The kids had the energy to have been able to pull off a quality 400m. Worth pointing out, I once watched a video where Colin Jackson (UK) gave a strategy for running the 400m: run the first 200m @ 98% of maximum, and try to hold on for the remainder of the race. I believe the idea behind the explanation was to, again, try to maintain an even pace around the track. I had a college track coach who was more direct, in that the key to running the open 400m was to maintain an even pace around the track. No specifics were mentioned. It was up to me to figure that out. Again, good video!

Really good video, really thx. I run 400m by myself, last year in U16 category now and this video is really helpful

this video was very helpful i have a competition coming up next weekend and i had no race plan so thank you!

Tomorrow is my FIRST EVER TRACK MEET and I came to this video so I wouldn't fail my team. I feel this will help me at least get top 5

Nice!

Awesome video, I'm a sophomore , and last year as a freshman I ran a 54.9 at a big invite, but this year it's still early I know but I'm running 57"s . And like today i had an invite , i got put in the boss heat I ran against kids running 51"s and 52"s , and it felt like the best race I ever ran but it was a 57 . My plan is senior year I want a 49.9 .

Totally dig your presentation. Thank you.

Listen I ran a 400m today. I’m a 15 year old Indian kid who only ran a 400m 2 before. I listened to this man word for word and I dropped from a 1:05 to a 1:00 flat. LISTEN TO THIS MAN.

6 years later but I have a meet on Saturday and this helped a lot, I'm going rewatched this video till my mind automatically knows what to do!! if what everyone says and how it helped so much I hope to God, I can break a minute! thank you for explaining it so in depth. Edit: your plan worked so well I was running a 101.58 today I just ran a 59.73 thank you so much!
