Notes
|
After a warmup, run uphill for 60 to 90 seconds at a 10-K race effort; it should feel like the same sustainably-hard effort that you’d make while you’re running at your 10-K pace. After you get up the hill, jog or walk downhill to recover. Repeat that cycle four times. Cooldown afterward.
Hills are never really that fun for me. In high school I did enjoy racing my teammates up 5th street hill in Lebanon, and I recall that I was often first or second most of the time. Tyler hill was another story! We would get a ride in the van back to the high school from Coach Dannen if we hit our goal time. In four years I got a ride once! Today I was inspired not by coach Dannen, but by Shawn, Christina, and many other that have been diagnosed by a life threatening illness. When tired and wanting to walk I kept pushing. It was only four repeats for about 60 seconds each, but it felt like an eternity. Afterward the three mile cool down was relaxing.
