Ran a 2x1.5 mi. VO2 max workout on the Provo river trail near town. Sasha suggested we run this workout starting out at AT pace in order to prime the muscles and heart for a more efficient workout. I like this workout a lot because it does not let you cheat by using the anaerobic energy system a lot in the beginning. Sasha's theory is that it uses a larger aerobic component overall. This would in theory make it a more effective VO2 max workout also. I think I will test this workout in my training in order to improve my 5k PR. 2x1.5mi-7:53&7:59 |
