THE 400
OATCCC 2015
TRACK AND FIELD CLINIC
Rod O’Donnell
“The heart of a great track team is built around
the 400. If you can run a 400, you’ll be
able to succeed in the shorter sprints, the
300 hurdles, the sprint relays, and maybe
even the 800.”
Carl Dupler,
Former Cambridge Coach

GENERAL FACTS
• Predicted time for the 400 is to take the
athlete’s 200 time and double his/her best
200 and add 3.5 seconds.
Another predictor is to take the 200 time,
multiply by 2.208 for a high school boy and
2.234 for a high school girl.
• A successful 400 training program
will include training comprised of
STRENGTH ENDURANCE
SPEED ENDURANCE
TEMPO ENDURANCE
STRENGTH TRAINING
POWER
SKILL (Event Running)
FLEXIBILITY
MENTAL TRAINING
PROPER SPRINT
MECHANICS IS A
CRITICAL PART OF THE
SUCCESS IN THE 400
AND SHOULD BE
INCLUDED IN ALL
PHASES OF THE
TRAINING FOR THE
EVENT
CORE STRENGTH IS A
KEY TO 400 SUCCESS
Building a base of aerobic and anaerobic work,
especially in the early season, will
allow athletes to perform
over a long season.
PRESEASON CONDITIONING SHOULD INCLUDE
ONE DAY PER WEEK OF HILL WORK.
SUGGESTED DISTANCE: 30-150 METERS
THE AMOUNT OF WORK
DONE DURING THE PEAK PHASE
OF TRAINING WILL DEPEND ON THE
QUANTITY AND QUALITY
OF WORK DONE IN THE
BASE PERIOD.
TRUE SPEED WORK IS ANY
DISTANCE RUN UNDER :08,
USING MAXIMUM EFFORT.
Tony Venay, OATCCC Clinic
400 BREAKDOWN
The first 70 meters – SPRINT
The next 130 meters – FLOAT
The next 100 meters – BUILD
The final 100 meters – LIFT
The opening 200 of a 400 meter race should be
one to two seconds slower than the athlete’s
best 200 time, according to the athlete’s
experience, with the second 200, one-two
seconds slower than the first.
WEIGHT TRAINING
Wt Training is important, using 3-4 sets of
8-9 reps for 4-6 weeks, then 4-5 sets of 5 reps
for 6 weeks. If lifting during peak phase, 3 sets
of 5 reps are recommended.
