Treadmill Workout

This is a workout I wrote with Benny for a fast runner (ITU style) athlete to use. I have modified this to 2 x through for some of my athletes but many started with just 1 x through. Its good for economy and foot speed and thought you may enjoy it.


This is a treadmill set. warm up 10 min then at 30 seconds per mile faster than 5k speed and 1% grade perform the following set 1-2 x through with 5 min easy between:



2min  @ 5k - 30 seconds if possible on treadmill (EZ1 min)



increase speed .5mph 4x 45 seconds (EZ 1 min)



increase speed .5mph 4x 30 seconds (EZ 1 min)



 Cool Down 10-15 min
