In the 3 weeks preseason, you should have been switching to sprint and pylometric work to get your body ready for the changing demands. In the off season yes.

The treadmill moves under you so all you have to do is move you legs, you don't have to push back with them to propel yourself forward. Running on the ground is much harder on your legs. Also, straight endurance running helps with endurance but does nothing for speed. You need to switch off to doing sets of wind sprints, sled/parachute, or running up short hills. Not really.

The most important thing is to be able to handle the august heat. Yeah, I don’t know how good you are, but that’s more than enough to get fit.
