Alysia (Johnson) Montano WOW - 400 repeats

Looking fit and strong. Definately an 800 body, like Maggie V.

Alysia, you are a fierce 400m woman! You are my new favorite sprinter! Amazing work! :)

PRE VIDEO SOLINKSKI PLAY-BY-PLAY IS THE BEST THING FLOTRACK EVER DID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alysia is sure a smooth runner and cool person. I found this workout video motivating, but, unlike The Stache, I'm VERY weary of having to endure the 10K intro before every single video.

Great workout with a stellar athlete.

Who's the goon in the long shorts and trainers running behind them??

hate watching videos on flotrack, and then 2 mins into the clip the video just stops. why does my computer hate me.

He didn't say this was a 1:57 workout. Her PB is 1:57, so i think that is what he was probably referring to. And he didn't say she is in 1:57 shape today, he said if she is in Daegu.

That's not a 1:57 workout as Mr. Holtz stated, there are no females on the planet doing 1:57 workouts in March. That was about a 2:01/2 work out for guys, although it might translate a little different for girls. That's good becasue you don't want to push too hard in the beginning, you want to build. Based on that workout, if Alysia runs around 2 flat in a meet in the next week or two, that would be a great early season marker. Some of the best NCAA 800m guys are only running around 1:49/50 right now, but some of those guys will be running 1:45/46 come June. That's the nature of the 800m, it takes a while to get both of the speed and endurance syetems in sync. Unfortunately, a lot of the 800m athletes who run fast times early usually don't get much faster and sometimes go backwards.

Alysia has a great coach and he is approaching things the right way; the 1:57 workouts will won't happen until June.
