A middle school track meet conflict has us hitting the power lines tonight – and it’s good timing for a little strength work too! We’ll be heading out on the dirt and then returning along the bike path concentrating on high-knees and quick turnover as we attack the hills. Bring stable shoes, ones on the beefier side of your shoe collection, so there aren’t any turned ankles or other nasty bruises. Back at the track, we’ll do some strides, form and strength work to cool down.
Warmup: 5′ to the power lines
Workout: hill pickups along the power lines and return
Cooldown: 5′ return plus two laps of the track
Post-cooldown: 5 x strides, high-knees, leg swings, butt kicks, power bursts
