Week of August 29th

Run

Warmup:

3 Rounds:

“In-N-Outs” (no, not the burger unfortunately)

An In-N-Out consists of a 20m moderate paced jog, a 20m hard paced jog, and a 20m moderate paced jog.

So it is a 60m run with alternations in speed.

• Goal: Learn how to quickly switch gears and stay under control.

Run Drill:

Hill Sprints:

To include at the end of an easy run (20-40 minutes)

5 Rounds: 0:10 Hill Sprint

Walk Back To Start

Walking Rest 2:00

• Find a steep hill that challenges your ability to keep cadence and posture. If the hill is too steep for your current capacity, you will notice a hard deterioration of cadence and/or posture.

• Goal: Run as hard as you can for 0:10. Stay as tall as you can (resist bent over at waist position) and maintain cadence as you hold on flat ground.
