This is a workout for Thursday, February 16, 2023.
This is Day 4, Week Seven for the 2023 Winter Training Block.
Today is a hill day, and it is the secret sauce of the winter block.
Warm up well, do a 30-minute run, begin easy, and every 10 minutes increase the pace until the last 10 minutes you are running hard, then, five minutes of easy running, and 8 x 250-meter hill, jog down, run up a hard, and finish up with 4 x 150-meter stride outs, then cooldown slowly for fifteen minutes.
