2019 HOKA ONE ONE Spring Track & Field Training Week 6, Day 2: Tempo plus some 200m runs

Tempo Runs make you a tougher runner. That’s the truth. The repeat 200 meters afterwards get you tired. On the last couple repeats, see what you can do, not all out, but say, 90 percent, smooth effort. Cool down well.
