          You haven't given us enough info on yourself. Too hard to tell without it.

          What kind of training have you been doing?

          How long have you been running?

          What are your times?

          i do 1 hour jogs in the morning 2 times a week adn everyday after school i do differnt things mostly work on speed but it doesnt do much and i do ladders till i get to 400m then i workdown again i train with my track team though and the coachin isnt that great ive been running seriously since i was 12 though but this year is more intense because i have more places to go for track. i can usually run the 800m in around 2.35-2.40 but i cant seem to get faster .

          You don't need to do the one hour jogs in the morning. Just make sure you get your training in during the day.

          When you say you are giving yourself some speedwork, explain in detail what kind of speedwork you do?

          Do something different than ladders everyday. Vary your workouts.

          Anything else you need let me know.
