Up to Speed

Article Abstract:

Speedwork sessions can help a runner to become faster and stronger and run with less effort. Beginning runners need three or four months of basic training before beginning speedwork. Introducing faster paced running segments into an existing run is a good initial approach. Hill repeats are another good introduction.
