Hills!!

May 22, 2018 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Comments:
We’ve done these before and we are going again!

Warm up 1 mile easy


Then:
Start at bottom of a moderate hill (like 3% grade maybe)
, Run up hill moderately fast without walking for anywhere between 90 sec. and 2 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 to 30 sec.
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 this 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 then regular intervals so this is a time based workout.
You will have to look at the time on watch, not distance!!;)
