    Workout: Repeats with a Kick! 

    Today's workout can be distance or time based.  Choose any distance over 1/2 mile or any time over 1 min for your run repetitions.

    For the final 200M or 30 seconds of the Rep, you stop and rest/light jog for 30 seconds. Try your best to catch your breath.

    Then finish the rep as hard as you can - "The Kick"

    Rest after each rep at least 2 mins. 

    Repeat 4-6 times


    Example:  1km Kick Repeats

    800m : (or projected time you'd run a half mile at faster than 5km pace) 
    200m: (or 30 seconds all out)

    Full Workout:

    Warmup: 15-20 mins + Dynamics/Strides 

    800m / 30 seconds rest / 200m (Kick) / recover 2min

    Repeat 5X 

    Recover !
