30 Minute Run Fast Pace

When:Tue, Nov 15, 2011, 12:00am - 11:00pm

Details:

After warming up & stretching use a trail you like that has a soft surface or run around a big grass field. Run at 75% of full speed for the entire 30 minutes. You should not have to stop to walk but if your personal fitness doesn't allow you to run 75% speed without stopping then stop at 15 minutes. Recover and complete another 15 minute run.  Do not end up jogging for 30 minutes.

Jogging = Both feet are on the ground at the same time at some point as someone trudges along.  Running = Fast enough pace that only one foot is on the ground at a time as someone covers ground while running along. Can also think of running as involving a longer stride than jogging. A 75% Pace should result in both feet off the ground during each stride of the run.

Recovery - Eat a post workout recovery snack or meal with good protein 30 to 45 minutes after your workout.
