Hill work

May 21, 2018 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Comments:
This can be done Monday or Tuesday. Don’t hate me but I’d good for you!!!
Looking for some hill work today if possible...

Warm up 1 mile easy


Then:
Start at bottom of a moderate hill nothing too steep. Run up hill moderately fast without walking for anywhere between 30 sec. and 1 min. (The longer the better if hill allows)
Jog/ walk back down hill

Let's do this 4 times.


Then: I want to increase speed and really focus on form for this next set.
Run up hill fast for only 20 seconds .
Focus on good posture, high knees, swinging arms vertical and quick feet.

Jog/ walk back down hill (you should have at least a minute or two rest in between all.)

Let's do that 4x 20 sec. set 4 times!!


After the hill repeats, Cooldown for about a mile wherever you want and if have time.

The idea for these is to work hard going up and using the downhill as your recovery.
Paces will be slower than around a track, so this is a time based workout.
You will have to look at the time on watch, not distance!!;)
