  • ●  Since you may not have access to a track, you may need to run these intervals as a fartlek, or you may set up your own course on a trail or field and run for an equivalent amount of time or estimate the distance. For instance, if a 200m sprint normally takes you 40 seconds, simply sprint 40 seconds on a trail, road or field.
  • ●  Hang in there! We know it is hard to stay motivated with no races in the immediate horizon. Hopefully these workouts give you a taste of something normal from our pre-shelter-in-place lives. We miss you.
