Well, run, for one. A strength/power/endurance based weightlifting program is also very beneficial. You don't want muscle growth though.

You could also get a trainer or go to a sports club for athletics.

I made a quatum leap improvement of my running speed without ever running. I can't completely isolate what did it, but I am sure it was a combination of these things:
Deadlift Squat Leg Curls Seated Calve Raises Standign Calve Raises |

I read an article by kelly bagget about speed/jump. He said you have to have strength/power/and quick reaction to be a good runner,
so How much do you squat/dead? if you squat/deadlift a good amount, work on plyos/sprinting if you don't have a good squat/D'ling- start squatting and D'ling I will see if I can find the article (I posted it on this site) |

I have the EXACT same goal, Im probably a little older but summer '08 I plan on trying (got some classes I need to take over this summer
) anyway I know squats, lunges, and just strengthining your legs are the #1 thing, I work my legs 2X a week now. Running is also good but run sprints so u dont loose weight. I am going to throw jumproping in my workout routine, when is good time for that?M - upper T - Lower - quad dominant W - Off TH - Upper F - Lower - ham/hip dominant Sa - Off Sun - Sprints |

hypertrophy training needs periodization of some sort.....but, training for athletic performance is another animal. You really need to organize and prioritze what needs to be developed and worked on. |
