Yeah come to think of it track is not that far away for me either. Ummm.. l do not do hurdle, l do shot put, but jump on platforms cause l think they do that. Or do like 30 metter runs with hurdles. l don't, like l said l do not do it but l think that is how they practice.

Put the hurdles at the lowest height they go to. Go through the hurdles, put as close to each other as possible. Leave ur trail leg to the side of the hurdles, & only bring ur lead leg over them. Move through this drill with a rhythm that allows u only one step between each hurdle, so you're moving quick & using the movement in a repetitive matter. Engage in common sprint drills for quickness & speed & do plyometrics for jumping height. Plyometrics can span from platform jumps (jumping onto boxes) to bungee cord jumps (where you're bungeed down to a platform & u jump up as high as u can, against the resistance of the bungees).

ps the term is hurdling not jumping hurdles =]
jump higher? when u hurdle u want to be right over it. So if that is what u need l guess ur primary focus would be on form.
typical drills would help that best. Set the hurdle to the typical height & practice just ur trail leg, then put it down on, & work on ur lead leg, it is always harder to fix ur lead.
Take 11 steps & place about 3 hurdles inbetween them. the u should one step inbetween them. Have ur coach, friend, or someone who knows hurdling watch you, this will clearly show what ur problems r while hurdling.
and u will need to get ur speed up. l find this workout the most effective. sprint 6 100s, 5 200s, & 3 300s, then jog an 800. this will increase speed & endurance.

hope that helps =]
