Do you think i could beat my school mile record in three years?

look up plyometrics (bounding) they will help a lot with your jump.. fartlicks work well for sprinting it will work on speed and a bit of endurance for the 200.. i suggest going to your track practices as well... if you miss them you are only hurting yourself. good luck
