How do you improve for long jump?

its normal if you breathe through your mouth while you run.
its mostly because you are inhaling a lot of dust and stuff while you breathe, which sticks in your saliva. also, water evaporates more quickly from your saliva, making in thicker. your body wants to get rid of this, so you salivate more, making you want to spit.

Could I prepare for a 10 mile run... in five months?

So swallow it. I go running and don't feel the need to spit in public, it's disgusting. You wouldn't do it if you were on the treadmill at the gym.

It's just your body's response to getting hot, you produce more fluids such as sweat and saliva.

Whats a good 1 1/2 mile time?

It sounds to me that you're not drinking enough water. when I run more than three milers I use a water belt with four little bottles of water, I have never felt the need to spit. try drinking more water before you run (short distances) On long runs well I think you know what to do. Enjoy the freedom of running
