A real opportunity to work on both speed and good running economy. Train faster to race faster. Love 200s. Go get ’em!
A pretty challenging session working on your upper body and the core. Both are important as runners to ensure we continue to run with good form.
A great form of cross trainer for us runners. Take a few minutes to warm up at find your stride but then push hard. You can real bang for your buck with just 30 mins on the stair climber. I hit around level 10 when doing these but find the right speed for you that you can maintain, but you find this tough.

Keep that RPE down. You want to be able to run and chat, speaking of which, joining a group can add to the enjoyment here.
