The Swedish term for speed play, a Fartlek works on speed and strength by alternating distances and paces during a continuous run. In this workout, you'll switch between speed and recovery pace as you take on five 1-minute intervals, three different times. Take advantage of your 30 second easy jog easy, because these efforts will touch on your VO2 Max. Let's go!
