Once a Jogger, Now a Runner (Part 4) Posted by Kaye on 02 May 2010
After 12 weeks of base or endurance building, now you are ready from some speed work as you approach race day. To ease into interval training, which can be quite daunting for most intermediate runners, here are two more training techniques you might want to add to your book of running knowledge:
Fartlek
This strange-sounding word is a Swedish term that means, roughly, speed play. And indeed, these workouts can seem like child’s play, interspersing fast bursts with slower recovery jogging. For intermediate runners, fartlek can be simply a fun, unintimidating introduction to faster running.
To do a fartlek, vary the speed and intensity of your pace, creating work and allowing recovery without stopping. Warm up by starting your run as you ordinarily would, jogging at a comfortable pace for about 10 minutes. Then, for a set period of time, “play” by alternating slow, medium, and faster paces for short periods of time. These timed intervals can be anywhere form 30 seconds to 3 minutes or try running each segment by picking out a different landmark like a telephone pole, lamp post, tree, or fire hydrant. Recover by jogging in between surges then pick up the pace again. Read the rest of this entry
