Over at Cal, Head Coach Tony Sandoval has a different way to incorporate long term speed development that a lot of people haven't seen when training mid-distance runners. The bungee is pretty cool and a type of speed technique you might see with the sprinters.

Was this done right after a workout or just at the end of a regular run?

i was hoping for a stanford workout. this was pretty good though, id like to try it, i could use help in last 100 kick. but this is a good way to pull something. doing stuff way faster then ur body is use to. looks like a hamstring pull drill, if u dont know what ur doing and dont know ur body.

Our kids have used this both on the track and waist-deep in the pool. Not as a "puller" like this system, but as a resistance aide. We hooked up a runner like a plow horse with another runner behind him. Just like working a team of horses. The runner pulls with the "driver" behind him holding him back but moving with him to optimize his leg drive. Sprinters and 1/4 milers love it. In the water they run the width of the pool in the shallow end with someone holding them back along the edge of the pool. Really tough with the combined resistance of the harness and the water!In this video I think you're only getting a minimum of a few yards of actual help, mostly just overcoming the inertia in the start. From a coaching standpoint, you always have to be working on something new to keep the training interesting. You can take or leave what you see other coaches doing, but having a varied and stimulating menu of things for your kids is extremely important.

It's not ridiculous at all. Check what people say about absolute speed development. You'll see plenty of top coaches advising very short sprints of 40-80m in length. You've got to think about the specificity of training and what they are trying to get out of it.

The hook cord just falls down because the tension is what is holding to the belt. I wonder how effective "over sprinting" would be if you attached a cord to a car! lol
