**************
^Distance and time based workouts. If you have access to a Garmin or another type of GPS device that you can program in the distances/times, that would be ideal. Otherwise, make do with what you have.
**The goal today is to start to improve endurance and stamina stamina – going longer distances, and being able to hold a consistent pace. If you’re already thinking ‘this it too easy’.. remember, this is only D2! We’ve got a looong way to go, so be patient.
Thursday workouts will be these longer intervals of 800-1000m, or anywhere from 4-6 minutes of sustained running.
Try to maintain times within 5-8 seconds of each other. These are not all out/ME (max effort) sprints, but something faster than a conversational pace.
