2x2 mile tempo
Warm up with .5 miles easy walk/jog
Run 2x2 miles fast at tempo pace with full recovery in between..
So for the first two miles we are looking for a pace that is moving but certainly not like 5k race pace....
Anything in the low to mid 12's 12's like 12 to 12:30 would be ideal.
I'm going to let you pick how you want to do it, but the idea is to run 2 miles at a pretty solid effort, and then to rest and take full recovery before doing it again! As I always say, try not to run so fast the first two miles so that the second two mikes feels like death. This is a true 10k/HM workout so it's more about keeping it steady than about speed.
The total mielage for day will be 4.5
