RUN/WALK TRAINING WITH INTERVALS

BENEFITS OF INTERVAL TRAINING

Interval workouts are powerful tools for targeting and training to improve running speed,
endurance, and threshold. Periods of heavy activity such as running interspersed with recovery
periods of lesser activity such as walking help you train longer and more intensely. Combining
aerobic and anaerobic activity in this way helps you:
•
Target workouts for improving speed, cardiovascular and muscular endurance, and other
qualities.
•
Improve your body's processing of lactic acid.
•
Reduce the risk of injury.
For best results, set up your interval workouts to train for a specific quality:
•
To train for endurance, you might set up a classic 1-mile repeat workout: three or four
repetitions of a 1-mile interval at about half-marathon pace, each followed by a 1/4-mile walking
recovery.
•
To train for speed, you might run sets of 4 x 400m: run a fast 400m interval at slightly more
than race pace, followed by a 2-minute slow jog recovery, and repeat both intervals four times.
•
To train for speed and endurance, consider the fartlek workout ("speed play" in Swedish),
which combines periods of fast and slow running.

Your watch's interval timer can track times and distances for two workouts of up to eight intervals
each. Each interval can be repeated up to 99 times.
