Shortcuts to Faster Running

In a crunch for time but want to get a workout in? Read Coach Mindy’s Shortcuts to Faster Running on ThatsFit.com. She explains the importance of hill and speed work, and how to complete an efficient workout in very little time. I completed the following speed workout on the treadmill, as per Coach Mindy’s advice.

  • 10-minute warm up
  • 30 seconds fast
  • 60 seconds slow
  • 30 seconds fast
  • 60 seconds slow
  • 30 seconds fast
  • 60 seconds slow
  • 30 seconds fast
  • 60 seconds slow
  • 30 seconds fast
  • 60 seconds slow
  • 30 seconds fast
  • 60 seconds slow
  • 30 seconds fast
  • 10-minute cool down

Despite the short duration of the workout (just under thirty minutes), I was challenged by these quick pick-ups. Though I can’t skimp on workout duration every day, this quick treadmill run is great for those busy days when fitting in a training run into daily life seems almost impossible.
