it sounds like your coach is on the right track. If you get tired you will not run as fast and therefore get no benefit from the speed work. You want to be fresh for each drill so that you can condition your body to run at a greater speed.
There are times when you want to push your body to near exhaustion, but those times are designed to improve your endurance.
Hope that cleared things up. If you have any questions feel free to contact me at and don't forget to check out our new online training program at www.hufftrainingonline.com.
Happy Training,
Coach Dan

Totally agree with Coach Dan. I know that it is hard but do not be impatient ( , it is for your own benefit. )
Your body is still growing so listen to your coach, he knows a lot more than you. D
