RunBlogRun provides a daily summer mileage cross country program called the 2022 RunBlogRun Summer Mileage Cross country Program. This is week seven and day four.
Hills are the way to truth and enlightenment. Finnish star Lasse Viren did 800 meter hill repeats to build his strength and speed. Our hill workouts are about getting you ready for upcoming cross country races.
Today’s workout is a hill workout.
Warm up well, do a 30-minute run, then eight times a 250-meter hill, jog down and then do six times 150-meter stride-outs, then a cool down.
