Hill workouts are part of an effective program for building for cross country success. The truth is, there are many ways to get to a successful season. The program that I have suggested for the past twelve weeks is a program that has worked for my teams, my athletes and has been considerably tested and fine-tuned.
There will be things that work for you, and things that won’t. Your job is to find what works for you.
Saucony RBR Fall Cross Country Program, Week Twelve, Day Four
Thursday: 1-mile warm up, 9 hill repeats (run 200 yards uphill, turn, jog downhill to the start. Repeat 8 more times, no rests); on the flat at the bottom of the hill, try for 8×150 yards as easy strideouts, jogging to the start, no rest between; 1-mile easy cool down. Or, if a race happens on Thursday and Saturday, finish up with the 10×150 yards and then do your 1-mile easy cool down.
