READY SET GO
RUN 9:
TRACK ATTACK YOU KNOW HOW WE CAN TELL YOU’RE GETTING STRONGER?
WHAT TO EXPECT Track workouts are no joke. It’s not going to be the easiest of the 10 runs, but you’ve got this. It’s all about pushing your pace for a short period of time, recovering after, and then walking away with more speed than what you had when you arrived.
WORKOUT Warm up with 2 easy laps on the track. Then stretch. Run 200m at a hard, fast pace, followed by a 200m recovery walk or jog. Repeat 6 times. Cool down with 2 more relaxed, easy laps.
TIP If you don’t have access to a track, find a flat stretch where you can do the following: Warm up with an easy 5-minute run. Stretch. Follow with 1 minute at a hard, fast pace and recover for 1 minute. Repeat 6 times. Cool down with a 5-minute jog.
NEXT RUN: RUN YOU Repeat after us: “I am a RUNNER.” All there is to do now is celebrate your stride with some freestyle miles.
