Default Sprinting workout program

This workout is taken from Matt Furey's book Combat Conditioning. Its lovingly refered to as "Scab Runs", named after his wrestling coach Keith Mourlam(nicknamed Scab) at the University of Iowa. Note- The squats and the pushups are most likely the "Hindu" variation, which really push the cardio element.

Yeah, Combat Conditioning's got some brutal workouts in it. Have you ever done this one? Also, I'd like to try it, but want to put it to a treadmill. How long on the treadmill equals 100 yards, 80 yards, etc? Any ideas?

I actually have'nt tried this one, lets just say my running skills are very poor. I'm not sure about the treadmill. Thats one of my least favorite pieces of equipment so i don't know much about them in terms of program capabilities. If i were to use a treadmill i would probably find myself doing some trial and error with it before trying the full program. Instead of trying to figure out 100 yards i'd go for time at differant mph. The program does'nt have be followed to the letter to be effective. Start with finding out how fast you can run the 100 yard dash and work from there. You'd have to spend some time at a track or open field. I'd personally prefer to do this workout outdoors. By the end your legs will probably feel like jelly and i'm not sure i'd have the coordination left in them to run safetly on a treadmill.
