Workouts will be a variety of tempo runs, long and short repeats/intervals and hills.  We’ll use bike paths in winter, adding grass and trail in the warmer months.  Whether your goals are on the road, xc or trail, you’ll benefit from these workouts and have some fun along the way. 



Tempo is a generic term for faster running paces; how fast can be dictated by the nature of the workout, considering the repeat frequency, length & rest type/duration, weather/footing conditions.  Generally somewhere between half marathon & 10K pace or effort
Hard (or Fast) is reserved for shorter bouts of more intense running.  Again, consider the frequency, duration and rest.  Typically 5K or faster effort.



Complete the interval workouts as fast as comfortably possible considering the length of reps, number of reps, and recovery periods.   Use the first one to find your rhythm.  Always stay in control - if you feel out of control, turn it down a notch, if too easy, take it up a notch.  At the end you should feel like you could have completed one more repeat if you had to.  Don't get hung up on a particular pace, try to feel.
