Tempo runs are the foundation for many great training programs, but let's face it, after you have done a few of them they can get pretty boring. Not today. This workout will keep you going non-stop for a solid 15 minutes of pace work, but instead of keeping it steady you will mix it up from start to finish. Out fast, a mix of aerobic speeds in the middle and then a cut-down to close it all out. This will definitely not be another mindless run. Stay focused and work on changing up your turnover from start to finish. This one is a tempo run with a little panache.
