SOME DISTANCE

The Champ:  After & Before


Foothill Community College Track
Wednesday, Mar-4, 5:30 to 7:00pm


Intermediate & Long Distance Workout
12min, 5min, 3x1min

Workout Details:  This is 21min of running.  The pace from 12min to 5min to 1min will get progressively faster.  Each athlete will have a total of 6min of rest to use anywhere within the workout. The rest should be conserved and does not need to be used prior to the last 1min interval.  I will provide each athlete their target 200m times for each time period.  The purpose of this workout is athlete knowledge.  Every athlete must learn how to assess a workout based on their ability.  Knowledge will bring confidence.  Creating confidence within an athlete is my most important role.
