Day 041 - Fartlek

17-minute uphill (UP) run (level 4)        Training via ActiveMail

DO A 17-MINUTE UPHILL (UP) RUN AT LEVEL 4 INTENSITY (80-90% of MHR): Warm up for 10-15 minutes with easy- to moderate-paced running. This week, you'll do what the Swedish call "fartlek," which means speed play. Pick a rolling or hilly route. Go hard (level 4) when the urge strikes; go easy when going hard doesn't seem like such a good idea. Continue in this unstructured manner for 17 minutes. Cool-down for 10 minutes by jogging or walking.
