The Attack Dog Chase Method
For sprint speed. This is using a 60m sprint example.
1. Athlete gets set in blocks. There's a fence about 70m from the starting blocks.

2. Handler is holding an attack dog, such as pitbul or german shepherd. The distance between the sprinter & the dog depends on the total length of the sprint. For this example, we'll use 15 yards separation. For a 200m sprint, we might use 30-40 yards separation, etc.

3. At the sound of the gun, the athlete sprints & the dog chases. The goal is for the athlete to outrun the dog and run into the fence, climbing up and avoiding imminent death. If the athlete fails to reach the fence before the dogs gets ahold of him, a mauling will occur.
