Stuck in a rut (Read 312 times)

the past three 800m races i ran i have gotten the same time :2:32.  how can i improve this time?

Try cutting back on your mileage for a while but maintain your workout intensity. Your legs should start feeling fresher. 

 Huh?  If his log is correct, he isn't running significant mileage to begin with.  I'd recommend the exact opposite -- run more.  Probably a lot more.

 our track season ended about a month ago and i took afew weeks  off..

 Fair enough, but unless your log is missing data you were still averaging less than 20 mpw during the season.  If you want to improve the easiest way is probably to run more -- you have plenty of room for aerobic development at that kind of mileage.  (Disclaimer: I don't know anything about shorter distances like the 800, nor do I have any experience racing them, but even for those kind of distances I imagine some more mileage will go a long way)
