The hill workout is held every Thursday in our program. The goal of the workout is to prepare you to run hills successfully. You will notice that we are giving you more hills and the workout is getting harder.
Saucony/RBR Summer Mileage program, Week Five, Day four: the hills…
Thursday: 1-mile warm up, 6 Hill Repeats (run 200 yds uphill, turn, jog downhill to start. Repeat five more times, no rests); 1-mile easy cool down.
Hills make you strong. Hills prepare you for the fall cross country season. Focus on the hills today.
