Today's workout is going to help improve your ability to finish a race strong, as well as learn to pace yourself well in the beginning. We are going to be doing this with what's called a progression run where you start off the interval easy, and finish it hard. We're targeting a distance of 800m, or 1/2 mile, today. That'd be two laps around a running track.
