Do this beginner-friendly run workout on the road, trail treadmill or track.
We love this workout because it includes just enough speedwork to include early in the season.
It’s a great workout to get the body to start learning how to get faster without the fatigue or strain of a longer track set. Plus, you can do this workout anywhere road, trail, treadmill or track.
If you’re just getting back to speed or doing it for the first time, focus less on your actual pace and more on creating a difference in efforts.
