Although I've read all about the benefits of Interval Workouts and how they help improve your speed, I've always shied away from including them in my workouts. However, after attending Running Camp in July where we actually went to an outdoor track and did interval training, I feel much more confident and comfortable with including these workouts in my program. I've already scoped out 2 local high schools that have tracks so I will be heading to one of them tomorrow morning to complete my first solo interval training workout!
Here's my plan:
- 10-minute warm up run around the track
- 4 x 400 intervals
- Run 400 meters (1 lap) hard
- Jog 400 meters (1 lap) for recovery
- Repeat 4 times
- Run 400 meters (1 lap) hard
- 10-minute cool down run around the track
