Paddock – Interval training

Where: Paddock AO

When: 10/17/18 @ 5:30am

Q: White Wall

Pax: OG, Duggar and White Wall

It was a fine crisp morning in the bluegrass. Thought we might do some more interval training to try to strengthen the overall running. So we did!

First was some warmups

20 side straddle hops

Yada yada yada….we stretched then it was off for the first leg of running.

1/2 mile run to the figure 8 drive.

15 Merkins to a .15 fast run (we won’t kid and call it a sprint though Duggar and OG showed me up the whole way through) to the middle

10 Berkins to a .15 run to the end

15 Merkins to a .15 run back to the middle

10 Berkins to a .15 run back to the entrance

15 Merkins to a .15 run to the middle

10 Berkins to a .15 run to the end

15 Merkins to a .15 run back to the middle

10 Berkins to a .15 run to the entrance

From there we added an extra leg to make the final run stretch close to a mile. After getting some feeling back in the limbs and making sure the burning lungs were gonna make it….we regrouped back at the splash pad.

Putting this workout about an hour before going to bed I thought it would be too simple and wouldn’t push us enough. I was wrong. Simple, thorough and painful. Just what we need first thing in the morning. My boys pulled me along through the grind and we started our day right! Thanks men
